The bacteria within dental plaque feed on the acid in the foods you eat. If left untreated, this process can cause the development of gum disease.
Your six-month dental check-up and professional teeth cleaning are essential for your oral health. There’s a supportive treatment that you will require if gum disease is present.
For scaling, we use dental hand instruments, an ultra-sonic device, or both. Your procedure begins with an examination and is followed by the use of an ultrasonic device. The careful sonic “vibrations” remove the plaque bacteria and tartar build-up from your tooth surfaces and beneath your gum line.
Root planing focuses on your tooth’s root surfaces. The procedure reduces the inflammation in your gum tissue and eliminates plaque and bacteria buildup.
