What is Deep Teeth Cleaning?
Deep cleaning, also known as Scaling and Root Planing, is a specialized treatment often recommended when a thorough examination reveals signs of Periodontal Disease. Unlike a routine cleaning, this procedure is necessary to address:
Deep Pockets: Gum pockets exceed 3 mm in depth, making them impossible to clean at home.
Tartar Buildup: Significant calculus is present beneath the gum line.
Periodontitis: Moderate to severe gum disease is progressing.
Chronic Inflammation: Gums are red, swollen, or bleed easily.
When deep pockets are present, plaque and tartar become trapped in areas that brushing and flossing cannot reach. If left untreated, this can lead to bone loss and eventual tooth loss. Scaling and root planing is the first line of defense in restoring your health.
Deep Teeth Cleaning Process
We prioritize your comfort during every procedure. To ensure a painless experience, Dr. Huh, Dr. Shin, or Dr. Othman may use a local anesthetic depending on the condition of your gums and the depth of the periodontal pockets.
Removing the invisible causes of inflammation to protect your smile
The procedure entails a thorough removal of dental plaque and tartar (calculus) from both above and below the gum line. We meticulously clean the root surfaces to remove toxins and encourage the gums to reattach to the teeth.
To further ensure a successful recovery, we may utilize antimicrobial irrigation or place antibiotic fibers directly into the pockets to control infection and promote healing.

The Benefits of Deep Teeth Cleaning
1. Whole-Body Health Protection
Research shows that bacteria from periodontal infections can travel through the bloodstream, potentially affecting your heart and respiratory system. Deep cleaning removes these harmful bacteria, protecting your overall wellness.
2. Prevention of Tooth Loss
By reducing pocket depth and eliminating chronic inflammation, we protect the gingival and bone tissue that supports your teeth, significantly reducing the risk of tooth loss.
3. Aesthetic & Fresh Results
Scaling and root planing removes superficial stains and eliminates the bacteria that cause persistent bad breath, leaving your mouth feeling fresh and looking its best.
