How is it treated?

How long has it been since your last Dental Cleaning?

Prophylaxis (Regular Cleaning)

Six oral conditions that a dental prophylaxis helps prevent:

1. Bacterial plaque

2. Tartar

3. Tooth decay

4. Bad breath

5. Gingivitis

6. Periodontitis

 

Deep Cleaning

One method of treatment for periodontal disease is deep cleaning. This treatment removes plaque and dental calculus (tartar) from root surfaces through procedures using manual, sonic, and ultrasonic instruments.

Maintaining a smile free from conditions that cause dental loss can ensure a longer and healthier life for your oral health.
