Scaling & Root Planing

Premier Dentist in Hialeah, FL!

At Corsar Dental, led by Dr. Yoan Cortiza, we understand the importance of maintaining healthy gums to support overall oral health. Scaling and root planing is a cornerstone treatment for addressing gum disease and preventing its progression. Discover the benefits of scaling and root planing and explore the various treatments we offer to promote optimal gum health. This treatment, also known as deep cleaning, is a non-surgical periodontal therapy designed to treat and manage gum disease, also known as periodontitis.

This procedure involves thorough cleaning of the teeth and gums to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria from above and below the gum line, as well as smoothing the root surfaces to promote gum tissue healing and attachment.

Why are Scaling & Root Planing beneficial for patients?

Gum Disease Management

Scaling & Root Planing effectively removes bacterial plaque and calculus buildup from the teeth and gums, reducing inflammation and infection associated with gum disease and preventing its progression.

Reduction of Gum Inflammation

Scaling & Root Planing helps reduce gum inflammation and swelling, alleviating symptoms such as redness, tenderness, bleeding, and sensitivity associated with gum disease and improving overall gum health.

Preservation of Gum and Bone Tissues

Scaling & Root Planing removes toxins, bacteria, and calculus from the root surfaces of the teeth, preventing further destruction of gum and bone tissues and promoting the regeneration of healthy gum attachment.

Prevention of Tooth Loss

Scaling & Root Planing helps stabilize and preserve the supporting structures of the teeth, including the gums and jawbone, reducing the risk of tooth mobility, loosening, and eventual tooth loss associated with advanced gum disease.

Improvement of Oral Health

Scaling & Root Planing promotes optimal oral health by removing harmful bacteria and toxins from the mouth, reducing the risk of systemic health issues associated with untreated gum disease, including heart disease, diabetes, respiratory infections, and pregnancy complications.

Enhancement of Overall Well-being

Scaling & Root Planing improves the overall well-being and quality of life of patients by restoring gum health, preventing oral health problems, and promoting a healthy and functional smile for life.

Types of Scaling & Root Planing Treatments

There are various scaling and root planing treatments used to address different aspects of oral health.

Full Mouth Debridement is a comprehensive cleaning of the entire mouth, eliminating heavy plaque and tartar buildup, allowing for a detailed assessment of periodontal health.

Quadrant Scaling & Root Planing divides the mouth into four sections, facilitating a deep cleaning process to remove calculus and bacteria one quadrant at a time.

Subgingival Scaling targets plaque and tartar below the gum line, promoting healing and attachment of gum tissue.

Antimicrobial Therapy can complement scaling & root planing, further minimizing bacterial infection and inflammation.

Periodontal Maintenance visits involve regular examinations and cleanings to monitor gum health, prevent gum disease recurrence, and ensure long-term periodontal well-being after scaling procedures.
