Information

What is a Dental Deep Cleaning?

A dental deep cleaning, also called scaling and root planing, is a procedure to treat gum disease and maintain oral health. Unlike regular cleanings, which focus on the surface of the teeth, deep cleaning dental treatments go below the gum line to remove plaque and tartar buildup.

Dental deep cleaning before and after results can be significant. Before the procedure, gums may be swollen, red, and prone to bleeding. After deep cleaning of teeth, gums typically become healthier, less inflamed, and more securely attached to the teeth. Regular deep cleaning dental procedures can prevent the progression of gum disease, improving overall oral health.

I have been to many dentists throughout the years, mainly because as a kid too young adult, I did not take good care of my teeth, so now im paying the price. This is by far the best dentist i have ever been to, he redid the work of a bad crown from another dentist and also did an implant for me, during the entire process of both procedures during different time frames he made me feel comfortable and took his time with me, answering all my questions. It's refreshing to have a dentist who doesn't rush from door to door, taking in multiple patients at once. After the implant tooth was put in, if I needed more adjustments, he let me know to call, and he will make time to get it adjusted for me. Also, so far, appointments have been very spot on, at most 5 - 10 min wait, but sometimes I get in even earlier. This is my main dentist now for all work going forward.

Advantages of Professional Deep Teeth Cleaning

deep cleaning dental
Prevents Gum Disease
Deep teeth cleaning helps remove plaque and tartar buildup below the gum line, preventing the progression of gum disease.
Reduces Bad Breath
By cleaning areas that regular brushing and flossing miss, deep cleaning can significantly reduce bad breath.
Better Oral Health
Deep dental cleaning reduces inflammation and bleeding of the gums, promoting overall oral health.
Saves Money in the Long Run
While the initial deep cleaning cost may seem high, it can save money by preventing more serious and expensive dental issues in the future.
Better Appearance
Deep cleaning teeth can make them look cleaner and brighter.
Regular professional deep teeth cleaning can help maintain a healthy mouth, prevent serious dental problems, and improve the appearance and health of your teeth and gums.

Information

Types of Dental Cleanings

Each type of cleaning addresses specific dental needs, helping to maintain and improve oral health.

Prophylaxis
A routine deep clean teeth procedure typically performed every six months. It involves removing plaque, tartar, and stains from the tooth surfaces above the gum line. Prophylaxis helps maintain oral health and prevent gum disease and cavities.
Gross Debridement
This type of cleaning is more intensive than prophylaxis. It’s used when there is a significant buildup of plaque and tartar that can’t be removed with routine cleaning. Gross debridement involves using special tools to remove large deposits of plaque and tartar, preparing the teeth for further examination or treatment.
Scaling and Root Planing
Also known as deep cleaning, this procedure is used to treat gum disease. Scaling removes plaque and tartar from below the gum line, while root planing smooths the tooth roots to help gums reattach to the teeth. This cleaning is essential for managing gum disease and preventing further complications.

Information

Dental Deep Cleaning Procedure

Here’s what to expect from the deep cleaning procedure:

  1. Initial Examination. The deep cleaning dentist examines your mouth and takes X-rays to assess the extent of plaque and tartar buildup below the gum line.
  2. Anesthesia. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, so you remain comfortable during the procedure.
  3. Scaling. The deep clean dentist uses specialized tools to remove plaque and tartar from the tooth surfaces and below the gum line. This helps eliminate bacteria that cause gum disease.
  4. Root Planing. The dentist smooths the tooth roots to help the gums reattach to the teeth. This reduces pocket depth, making it harder for bacteria to accumulate in the future.
  5. Follow-Up. After the deep cleaning, the dentist may schedule follow-up visits to monitor your gums and ensure they are healing properly.

Dental deep cleaning is important for managing gum disease and preventing further oral health issues, leading to healthier gums and teeth. To keep the best results of before and after deep cleaning, you need to maintain good oral hygiene.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Deep Cleaning

How is Dental Deep Cleaning Different from a Regular Teeth Cleaning?

Unlike regular teeth cleaning, which cleans the surface of the teeth and between the teeth above the gum line, dental deep cleaning goes beneath the gum line. This procedure is specifically targeted at removing the build-up of plaque and tartar that cause gum disease.

Is Dental Deep Cleaning Painful?

Some discomfort may be experienced during and after the deep cleaning procedure, especially if there was significant inflammation or deep pockets. Local anesthesia is often used to minimize discomfort during the procedure.

How Often Should I get a Dental Deep Cleaning?

The frequency of needing a dental deep cleaning depends on the individual’s oral health status and the progression of gum disease. Some might need periodic maintenance every 3-4 months, while others may require less frequent cleanings. Your dentist will tailor the schedule based on your specific needs.
