The removal of tartar deposits (also known as calculus) from the teeth, both above and below the gumline, is called scaling and root planing. The removal of plaque and calculus (ultimately bacteria) is the best way to maintain healthy teeth and gums and to prevent or reverse gingivitis and periodontitis.
 

We can also treat more advanced gum disease by providing gum therapy directed at reducing inflammation and gum pockets. This can range from 2 to 4 appointments of deep cleaning, with optional deep pocket irrigation using a medicated solution. Follow-up appointments will occur at regular intervals.

Preventative Services

This can cause many problems including: tooth decay, bad breath, gum disease and root canals. Hygienists recommend booking time for preventative dental care such as routine dental cleanings at least every 6 months.

​

Visiting us for professional teeth cleanings regularly will help keep your teeth and gums healthy and will allow our team to detect any problems early on.

What's Included:

Our preventative dental hygiene maintenance program includes regular teeth cleanings and examinations typically performed every 6 months.
