Dental Hygiene and Periodontal Treatments
We believe oral hygiene and regular scale and polish sessions are very important in maintaining oral health and gums. Dental scaling is routinely performed to help patients with gum disease and excessive plaque build-up. If you have healthy gums, the tissue will fit tightly around the tooth and keep plaque out. However, if gum disease begins to form, this tissue will loosen. With gum disease, you’ll begin to develop deeper pockets. These can fill with plaque, worsening your problems and causing symptoms like bad breath.
