Brandon Dental Deep Cleaning
Dealing with swollen or bleeding gums? We can help!
Revitalize your gum health
Gum disease can affect more than just your smile — it impacts your overall oral health. We provide Brandon dental deep cleanings, also known as scaling and root planing, to address gum disease and restore the health of your gums.
This specialized treatment removes plaque and tartar buildup below the gumline, helping to prevent further damage and promoting healing. With our personalized care, you’ll take the first step toward a healthier, more confident smile.
Advanced scaling and root planing solutions
Deep cleanings are essential for those with gum disease, targeting areas regular cleanings cannot reach. Scaling removes plaque and tartar buildup, while root planing smooths the tooth roots to discourage bacteria from accumulating. This combination helps to restore gum health and prevent further progression of periodontal issues. Essentially, this treatment:
• Deeply cleanses below the gum line
• Effectively combats periodontal disease
• Alleviates bad breath caused by gum infections
• Encourages gum reattachment to the teeth
FAQs
What is scaling and root planing?
Scaling and root planing is a two-step procedure designed to remove plaque and tartar from beneath the gumline and smooth the tooth roots. This process reduces inflammation and allows gums to heal.
How do I know if I need a deep cleaning?
Signs of gum disease, such as bleeding, swelling, receding gums, or persistent bad breath, may indicate the need for a deep cleaning. We can evaluate your oral health during an exam and recommend the appropriate treatment.
Is the deep cleaning procedure painful?
We use dental sedation to ensure your comfort during the procedure. In some cases, the deep cleaning may be split into 2 appointments to address all areas of your gums thoroughly. Some mild sensitivity may occur afterward, but it typically subsides quickly.
How long does it take to see results from a deep cleaning?
You may notice an improvement in gum health, such as reduced bleeding and inflammation, within a few weeks of the procedure.
How can I maintain gum health after a deep cleaning?
Maintain a consistent oral hygiene routine by brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and attending regular dental check-ups. A healthy diet and avoiding smoking can also support gum health.
