Periodontal cleaning and maintanance

Thorough cleaning below the gum line to remove bacteria and protect your gums and teeth.

The Process

We numb the area for comfort. Then your dentist or hygienist cleans below the gum line, removing tartar and bacteria from root surfaces and smoothing them so gums can heal back.

The Results

You’ll see reduced bleeding and swelling, fresher breath, and healthier gums. Over time, treated areas should feel smoother and easier to maintain.

Care Tips After Treatment

  • Brush gently around treated zones.

  • Use antiseptic mouth rinses as advised.

  • Stick to soft foods for a day or two.

  • Keep up with regular hygiene appointments to monitor progress.

What is Periodontal Cleaning?

A deep cleaning procedure that removes plaque and tartar buildup from below the gum line—areas regular brushing can’t reach. Helps fight gum disease before it gets worse.

Benefits of Periodontal Cleaning

  • Reduces gum inflammation, bleeding, and bad breath.

  • Stops bacteria from causing further damage to roots and bone.

  • Helps prevent deep gum pockets and more serious periodontal issues.

  • Supports long-term gum health with regular maintenance.

When It’s Recommended

  • If gums bleed, swell, or feel tender.

  • When gum pockets are forming and regular cleanings aren’t enough.

  • For those at higher risk: smokers, diabetes, or with past gum problems.
