Your teeth are not the only important part of your mouth. Your gums are essential to oral hygiene as well. We can provide periodontal cleanings and treatment, or refer you to one of our recommended specialists. Please let us know if you have any questions.
Often there is plaque and tartar that accumulate below the gum line. In this scenario, we will clean and smooth this area with special instruments to ensure that the area is completely spotless. This procedure is called scaling/root planning. If this area is not kept clean the entire area can become irritated with the bacteria that resides in the tartar and plaque. It’s very important to have your dentist check this area if you have bleeding during brushing.
