Root planing and scaling, also known as deep cleaning, is an important dental procedure for treating gum disease. It involves meticulously removing plaque, tartar, and bacteria from the tooth roots and below the gumline. This thorough cleaning helps to reduce inflammation, promote gum healing, and prevent further progression of gum disease. We have a Periodontist on staff.

Fluoride treatment is beneficial for teeth. It helps to strengthen tooth enamel, making it more resistant to acid attacks from bacteria and sugars. Fluoride can also reverse early signs of tooth decay and prevent cavities from forming. Regular fluoride treatments, along with proper oral hygiene practices, can contribute to maintaining healthy and strong teeth.

Bad breath treatment involves identifying and addressing the underlying causes of halitosis. It may include practicing good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly, cleaning the tongue, and using antibacterial mouthwashes.
