Scaling and Root Planing in Wetaskiwin

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.

Overview

What are Scaling & Root Planing?

Scaling and root planing are specialized deep-cleaning procedures performed to combat gum disease. We begin with a thorough examination to assess plaque and tartar buildup below the gum line, then gently remove it and smooth the tooth roots to help the gums reattach.
