Healthier gums and a stronger smile with advanced periodontal care.
Deep dental cleaning at FLOSS Dental in Delray Beach, FL is designed to stop gum disease before it progresses. If your gums bleed easily, feel tender or have started to recede, scaling and root planing can restore gum health and protect your teeth. This treatment goes beyond a regular cleaning to target bacteria hiding below the gumline.
When it's Best: Scaling is needed when bacteria and tartar form beneath the gum line and cannot be removed with routine brushing or standard cleanings.
How it Works: Your FLOSS dentist uses advanced tools to gently remove buildup from the surfaces of your teeth and roots. This prevents bacteria from continuing to damage the gum tissue.
When it's Best: Root planing is recommended for patients with deep gum pockets, early signs of periodontal disease or gum recession.
How it Works: We smooth the root surfaces of your teeth to prevent future bacterial buildup and give your gums a clean surface to reattach and heal against.
Your comfort is our priority. Deep dental cleaning at FLOSS can be completed with local anesthesia or numbing gel so you feel relaxed throughout the procedure. Our team explains each step, checks in during treatment and provides clear aftercare instructions to make recovery smooth and simple.
Deep cleaning is the first step in managing gum disease. Follow up with periodontal maintenance to keep your gums healthy, and consider localized antibiotic therapy for persistent infections. Regular dental cleanings and oral cancer screenings help maintain your complete oral health.
