Periodontal scalings and root planing is the treatment of choice for those who have developed deposits of plaque and tarter well below the gum in areas where the toothbrush and floss cannot reach.
By offering local anesthetics, our accomplished hygienists can comfortably debride these areas. With treatment and thorough home care instructions, we can help arrest and reverse this silent disease process to restore health. Local medications may be recommended and careful follow up is key to the success of our periodontal patients.
