Dental Deep Cleaning (SRP)
If you’re experiencing bleeding gums or showing signs of gum disease, we offer comprehensive periodontal treatment to address your concerns. An effective method we use is a deep dental cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing (SRP). Through this advanced procedure, we can successfully eliminate harmful bacteria and restore the health of your gums. This way, you can prevent the progression of gum disease and gain a more confident smile.
Dental deep cleanings are periodontal dentistry treatments that go beyond routine cleanings to focus on the health of your gums. Also referred to as gum therapy or scaling and root planing (SRP), this procedure is designed to prevent gum recession and the spread of harmful bacteria that can cause more severe periodontal issues.
Using state-of-the-art tools and a gentle touch, our skilled team removes bacteria and plaque from below the gum line. We then carefully smooth and shape the roots to promote healthy reattachment with your gums. If you’re dealing with gum disease, periodontal scaling and root planing are essential treatments to preserve the health and integrity of your smile.
Not everybody requires a dental deep cleaning. It isn’t simply an upcharge for a routine cleaning or something everybody needs every few years. Dental deep cleanings are a targeted gum therapy treatment to stop the progression of and reverse gum disease. For patients suffering from symptoms of gum disease, scaling and root planing is incredibly beneficial to restore gum health. Simply put, if you are suffering from gum issues, dental deep cleanings are absolutely necessary and effective.
A deep cleaning with our dentist begins with scaling, where we meticulously remove plaque and tartar from the surfaces of your teeth and below the gumline. Following scaling, we perform root planing to smooth out any rough spots on the tooth roots, promoting gum reattachment and preventing the spread of bacteria. We may provide you with a specialized antimicrobial rinse afterward to further attack lingering bacteria.
Periodontal scaling and root planing is often completed in multiple visits. We do this for patient comfort and convenience, allowing you to break up the treatment over time. It also prevents the need to numb the entire mouth, which may lead to accidental oral injuries after leaving the office.
While the cost of dental deep cleanings may vary depending on the severity of your condition, we can assure you that we offer competitive and affordable pricing. For most patients, the cost is between $200 to $400 per quadrant. With a consultation, we can provide an accurate assessment and work with you to develop a treatment plan that suits your individual needs and budget. Don’t hesitate to reach out to us with any questions or to schedule a consultation today.
