At Wetaskiwin Smiles, we understand the importance of healthy gums for a healthy smile. If you’re noticing redness, swelling, or bleeding when you brush, you might be experiencing the early signs of gum disease. Scaling and root planing, a specialized deep cleaning, is a cornerstone of our commitment to your oral health.
Let us help you regain a healthy smile right here in Wetaskiwin.
What are Scaling & Root Planing?
Scaling and root planing are specialized deep-cleaning procedures performed at Wetaskiwin Smiles to combat gum disease. We begin with a thorough examination to assess plaque and tartar buildup below the gum line. During scaling, our skilled hygienists use advanced instruments to remove hardened deposits from tooth surfaces and periodontal pockets. Root planing then smooths the tooth roots, preventing future bacterial accumulation and promoting gum tissue healing; we prioritize your comfort by using local anesthesia as needed.
Benefits of Scaling and Root Planing
- Localized Gum Health: Specifically targeting gum disease in Wetaskiwin residents.
- Preventive Care: Halting the progression of periodontitis to safeguard your teeth.
- Improved Breath: Eliminating bacteria that contribute to persistent bad breath.
- Enhanced Comfort: Reducing gum inflammation and sensitivity.
- Preserving Your Smile: Minimizing the risk of tooth loss associated with advanced gum disease.
