Deep Teeth Cleaning (Scaling & Root Planing)
What to Expect
A deep teeth cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing (SRP), is a crucial procedure in treating gum disease. Here's what you need to know:
What Is a Deep Teeth Cleaning?
- SRP involves going beyond a regular cleaning. Your dentist removes deposits like calculus and tartar from below the gum line.
- If these materials aren't removed, gum disease worsens, leading to bleeding gums and deeper pockets.
- SRP is essentially a cleaning/scraping of the root surface below the gum line.
Who Needs Scaling and Root Planing?
- Signs of gum disease include bad breath, bleeding gums, inflamed/sensitive gum tissue, and tenderness when flossing.
- X-rays may be done to check for bone loss or cysts before SRP.
- In chronic periodontal disease, regular dental deep cleanings (SRP) may be needed every 3 months.
What to Expect During SRP:
- Your dentist will thoroughly clean below the gum line.
- Some sensitivity may occur, but it significantly improves gum pocket depth.
- Aftercare involves maintaining good oral hygiene.
