At Gregory L. Bryan, DDS, we offer root planing as an effective treatment for gum disease. This deep cleaning procedure addresses plaque and tartar below the gumline, helping to restore gum health and prevent further complications.
What Is Root Planing?
Root planing involves thoroughly cleaning and smoothing the tooth roots, removing bacteria and tartar that can cause inflammation. It’s often paired with scaling to clean above the gumline.
Benefits of Root Planing
- Reduces Inflammation: Eliminates bacteria to reduce gum swelling and bleeding.
- Prevents Disease Progression: Treats periodontitis and protects against tooth loss.
- Improves Gum Attachment: Encourages gums to reattach to the teeth for better support.
The Root Planing Process
- Evaluation: We assess your gum health and take necessary X-rays.
- Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is applied for a comfortable experience.
- Cleaning: Plaque and tartar are removed, and the roots are smoothed to prevent future buildup.
