What Is Deep Dental Cleaning?
Deep Dental Cleaning, also known as scaling and root planning, is a professional dental procedure that removes plaque, tartar, and bacteria from above and below the gum line. Unlike routine cleaning, it targets heard-to-reach areas where regular brushing and flossing cannot remove buildup. The procedure helps prevent and treat gum disease by smoothing the roots of teeth, allowing gums to reattach properly and reducing inflammation. Benefits include decreased risk of tooth decay, prevention of gum recession, fresher breath, and overall improved oral and systemic health.
How It Works
Deep Dental Cleaning is performed using a combination of ultrasonic and manual instruments. First, ultrasonic scalers use vibration and water spray to break up and remove plaque and tartar above and below the gum line. Then, manual hand instruments target stubborn buildup and areas that are difficult to reach.
After scaling, root planing is performed, which smooths the surfaces of the tooth roots. This allows the gums to reattach more securely, reduces inflammation, and minimizes pockets where bacteria can accumulate. In some cases, polishing and fluoride treatment may be applied to protect enamel and prevent future decay.
