Scaling and root planing is a critical nonsurgical procedure for treating gum disease. Dr. Danny Lee and associates are dedicated to providing this essential treatment at Dental Spa & Implant Center of West Covina to help patients maintain optimal oral health.
What is Scaling and Root Planing?
Scaling and root planing, often referred to as a deep cleaning, involves two steps. Scaling removes plaque and tartar from the tooth surfaces and below the gum line. Root planing smooths the root surfaces, allowing the gums to heal and reattach to the teeth.
Benefits of Scaling and Root Planing
- Prevents Disease Progression: This procedure effectively treats early stages of gum disease, preventing it from progressing to more severe forms.
- Reduces Inflammation: By removing the irritants from beneath the gums, scaling and root planing help reduce gum inflammation and bleeding.
- Improves Oral Health: It helps eliminate bacteria that cause gum disease, leading to improved overall oral health and fresher breath.
