What is Scaling and Root Planning?
Scaling and root planing are non-surgical deep cleaning procedures performed to treat gum disease and restore gum health. They involve two key steps: scaling, which removes plaque, tartar, and bacteria from the teeth and below the gum line, and root planing, which smooths the tooth roots to help the gums reattach and prevent further bacterial buildup. This treatment helps reduce inflammation and bleeding and lowers the risk of tooth loss and more severe periodontal issues. With regular dental visits and proper oral hygiene, scaling and root planing can effectively maintain healthier gums and a stronger smile.
