Deep Cleaning for Gum Health: Scaling & Root Planing
Scaling & Root Planing: Advanced Treatment for Gum Disease
When gum disease progresses beyond what regular cleaning can address, scaling and root planing provides a deeper, more intensive cleaning to restore gum health. At Oasispark Dental, we offer expert deep cleaning treatments to eliminate harmful bacteria, reduce inflammation, and prevent the progression of periodontal disease.
The Benefits of Scaling & Root Planing
This specialized deep cleaning procedure is crucial for treating moderate to advanced gum disease. The treatment:
- Removes deep-seated tartar and bacteria from below the gum line that regular cleanings cannot reach, helping to heal infected gums
- Smooths root surfaces to prevent future bacteria accumulation and promote healthy gum reattachment
- Reduces gum pocket depth and inflammation, creating a healthier environment for your gums
- Halts the progression of gum disease, protecting your teeth from potential loss and bone damage
By choosing scaling and root planing, you can reverse early-stage gum disease and prevent more serious periodontal complications.
What to Expect During Your Deep Cleaning
Your procedure will be performed under local anesthesia to ensure complete comfort. Using specialized instruments, we carefully clean deep below the gum line to remove hardened tartar and bacterial deposits. The tooth roots are then smoothed to eliminate rough spots where bacteria tend to collect.
The treatment is typically completed in multiple visits, focusing on different sections of your mouth to ensure thorough cleaning and promote proper healing. After treatment, you’ll receive detailed instructions for maintaining your gum health and may be scheduled for more frequent follow-up visits to monitor your recovery.

Unlike routine cleanings, scaling and root planing reaches deep below the gum line to treat infected areas that regular cleaning tools cannot access.
The area is thoroughly numbed before treatment, ensuring you remain comfortable throughout. Some mild sensitivity after treatment is normal and typically resolves within a few days.
Each appointment usually takes 60-90 minutes per quadrant of your mouth. Most patients require 2-4 visits to complete the full treatment.
Untreated gum disease can lead to tooth loss, bone deterioration, and systemic health issues. Early intervention through scaling and root planing can prevent these serious complications.
