Keep Your Gums in Good Shape With Deep Cleaning

Our main treatment is known as scaling and root planing. It’s a gentle and effective approach to treat gum disease without surgery. Our team will:

  • Use local anesthesia to ensure your comfort during the procedure
  • Remove bacteria that cause inflammation and infection
  • Deep clean below the gumline to remove plaque and tartar
  • Smooth the tooth roots to help prevent bacteria from collecting on them

Gum disease is a chronic condition that requires ongoing management. Scaling and root planing can significantly improve your gum health. Yet maintaining that health requires a partnership between you and our dental team. We’ll work with you to develop a personalized care plan that addresses your specific needs and helps you maintain healthy gums for life.

After your initial treatment, you may need to come in for maintenance visits three to four times a year to keep your gums healthy. These follow-up appointments are crucial for preventing the recurrence of gum disease.

During these maintenance visits, we will:

  • Evaluate your gum health and measure pocket depths
  • Perform professional cleaning to remove any new buildup
  • Give you tips and advice on improving your at-home oral care routine

Common Questions About Gum Disease Treatment
What is nonsurgical gum disease treatment?

Nonsurgical gum disease treatment is designed to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria from around and under your gumline. Your hygienist or dentist will use special instruments to carefully get your gums back into shape, putting them on the road to health.

What causes gum disease?

Gum disease, also called periodontal disease, is an infection caused by bacteria in your mouth. Bacteria form a clear, sticky film called plaque that builds up around your gumline, leading to inflamed and infected gums. Left untreated, the infection causes your gums to separate from teeth, creating pockets where more bacteria accumulate. In advanced stages of gum disease, the infection spreads from your gums to the bone that supports your teeth. Your teeth can loosen and possibly fall out.

Can you cure gum disease at home?

No, you can’t cure gum disease at home – not even in its early stages. Gum disease is caused when bacteria-filled plaque and tartar build up in the area between your teeth and gums. This area can’t be reached with a toothbrush or floss. Using special equipment, your dental team removes all of the bacteria from this area and then smooths your tooth roots to make it difficult for more bacteria to accumulate.
