Scaling & Root Planing

Scaling and root planing is also known as deep cleaning – a process that is recommended when bacteria are attacking your soft oral tissues, causing tenderness, bleeding, and inflammation. To reduce the possibility of further damage, we can remove plaque and tartar from your teeth and gumline (scaling) before smoothing out your tooth roots to prevent future reinfection (root planing).

Antibiotic Treatment

In combination with scaling and root planing, we also offer antibiotic treatment. Using prescribed medicine, we will apply it directly to the gum pockets so that it may disperse over several weeks. During this time, the antibiotic will begin to target small areas of bacteria, eliminating them so that gums can heal properly and swiftly.
