Deep Cleaning

Gentle Care for Healthy Gums and Brighter Smiles

Plaque and tartar don’t just affect how your teeth look — they harm your gums and overall oral health. 

Teeth deep cleaning (also called scaling and root planing) is a preventive and therapeutic procedure that removes stubborn deposits from below the gumline, preventing gum disease and protecting your teeth for the long term.

At Dental De Care, our team specializes in advanced deep cleaning techniques designed for comfort, precision, and lasting results.

What Is Teeth Deep Cleaning?

Unlike regular cleaning (prophylaxis), deep cleaning addresses plaque and tartar trapped below the gumline. It involves two main steps:

  1. Scaling: Removing plaque, tartar, and bacterial deposits from the tooth surface and gum pockets.
  2. Root Planing: Smoothing the root surfaces to encourage gum reattachment and prevent further buildup.

This procedure is crucial for patients with early-stage gum disease (gingivitis) or moderate periodontitis.

Who Needs Teeth Deep Cleaning?

You may need deep cleaning if you notice:

  • Bleeding gums while brushing or flossing.
  • Persistent bad breath or bad taste.
  • Gums that look red, swollen, or tender.
  • Gum recession or longer-looking teeth.
  • Loose or shifting teeth.
  • Plaque or tartar buildup despite regular brushing.

Early treatment can prevent gum disease from progressing and save you from future complex treatments.

Benefits of Deep Cleaning

  • Removes harmful bacteria and tartar buildup.
  • Stops progression of gum disease.
  • Reduces gum inflammation and bleeding.
  • Helps prevent tooth loss.
  • Improves breath and overall oral health.
  • Creates a clean foundation for future dental work.
