What is Root Planing?

Root planing is the process of smoothening the root surfaces and removing any infected tooth structure. It is known to be the initial stage of treatment for periodontal disease. The procedure can also be done as a preventative measure that focuses on removing etiologic agents such as dental plaque, tartar, calculus, etc. which could lead to gingival inflammation and disease.

How It Works

During the procedure, the dentist would clean deeply below the gums to remove plaque and tartar buildup on the roots of teeth. Then, the complete removal of cementum, which is the calcified film that covers a tooth’s root will be done.

Root Planing may also involve removal of the superficial layer of dentin, which is the second layer of teeth below the enamel.
