Scaling and Root Planning

At Havana Street Dental Office, we provide expert scaling and root planning treatments to help patients combat gum disease and maintain healthy gums. Scaling and root planning is a deep cleaning procedure that removes plaque, tartar, and bacteria buildup beneath the gumline, preventing infection and promoting gum tissue healing. This treatment is especially beneficial for individuals experiencing early signs of gum disease, such as inflammation, bleeding gums, or deep periodontal pockets. Our skilled dental team uses advanced techniques to ensure a thorough and comfortable cleaning process.

During scaling and root planning, we carefully remove hardened deposits from the tooth surfaces and smooth the roots to prevent future bacterial accumulation. This process not only improves gum health but also helps reattach the gum tissue to the teeth, reducing the risk of further infection. Our office prioritizes patient comfort, utilizing gentle methods and, if necessary, local anesthesia to minimize sensitivity. With routine follow-up care and good oral hygiene, patients can significantly improve their gum health and prevent the progression of periodontal disease.

Maintaining healthy gums is essential for overall oral health and well-being. At Havana Street Dental Office, we provide personalized care plans to help patients keep their gums strong and disease-free. Regular dental visits and proper home care, including effective brushing and flossing techniques, play a crucial role in preventing gum-related issues.
