Scaling and Root Planing
Non-Surgical Treatment for Gingivitis
Gingivitis is a generative disease that causes tooth and gum deterioration. Fortunately, the treatment is simple and can be performed in the comfort of the dentist’s office. Early stage gingivitis is easily treated by cleaning and polishing the teeth, a process known as scaling. Advanced stage gingivitis requires the dentist to smooth the root surfaces and remove the infected tooth structure, a process known as planing. Both procedures are painless and can often be performed without anesthesia, though numbing agents are available if you experience any discomfort.
