Scaling and Root Planning in Bethesda, MD

Scaling and Root Planning is a non-surgical periodontal treatment designed to remove plaque, tartar and bacteria from below the gumline. The procedure involves scaling away the built-up plaque and tartar from the tooth surfaces and root planing to smooth out rough spots and promote gum reattachment.

Benefits of Scaling and Root Planing

  • Scaling and root planning effectively target and treat gum diseases. It prevents their progression and reduces the risk of complications.
  • By smoothing the tooth roots, root planing encourages the gums to reattach to the teeth and reduces pocket depths and restores gum health.
  • The treatment helps preserve the supporting structures of your teeth.
  • Scaling and root planning contribute to better oral hygiene, fresher breath and a healthier mouth.
