What is periodontal disease?
Periodontal disease (gum disease) is a bacterial infection that affects the gums and bone supporting the teeth. Symptoms include:
Red, swollen, or bleeding gums
Persistent bad breath
Gum recession or loose teeth
Deep pockets forming between teeth and gums
If left untreated, gum disease can lead to tooth loss and other serious health issues.
How does scaling and root planing work?
Scaling and root planing is a non-surgical deep cleaning that includes:
Scaling – Removing plaque and tartar from above and below the gumline.
Root planing – Smoothing the tooth roots to help gums reattach and prevent bacteria buildup.
Ongoing care – Recommendations for maintaining gum health and preventing reinfection.
This treatment halts the progression of gum disease and promotes healing, helping patients maintain a healthier smile.
