Deep Cleanings
When plaque hardens into tartar beneath the gumline, it can lead to gum disease, tooth decay, and the gradual breakdown of your smile’s foundation. As bacteria accumulate, the gums begin to pull away from the teeth—exposing vulnerable areas and increasing the risk of bone and tooth loss. To prevent further progression, Dr. Newton and our team may recommend a deep cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing.
Ultrasonic Scaling and Root Planing
This minimally-invasive procedure removes tartar buildup from tooth roots below the gumline. Deep cleanings are often completed over multiple visits—targeting one section of your mouth at a time—and we use advanced ultrasonic technology to improve comfort, reduce soft tissue trauma, and allow for greater precision.
Personalized Treatment Plans for Periodontal Disease
If you’re experiencing gum sensitivity, bleeding, swelling, or recession, let our team know as soon as possible. Gum disease advances in stages, and early intervention can help preserve your natural teeth and bone structure. For advanced periodontal cases, we may recommend maintenance cleanings every three to four months to manage the condition and protect your long-term oral health.
