1

Scaling and Root Planing

Non-surgical gum disease treatment in Lake Success/New Hyde Park, NY is called scaling and root planing. This procedure involves first using a special tool to remove calculus on the teeth at and below the gum line. Gum disease develops when bacterial plaque releases toxins that infect the gum tissues. Removing the source of these toxins can prevent gum disease from progressing further. Next root planing smooths the tooth surfaces to discourage future buildup of bacteria while making it easier for healthy gum tissues to reattach and minimize periodontal pockets around teeth. Scaling and root planing is often the first line of defense against gum disease and can help prevent more serious stages that require osseous surgery.

Periodontal Maintenance

Once active gum disease has been treated, periodontal maintenance is needed to prevent re-infection. These deep cleanings are more frequent than normal hygiene appointments and are more comprehensive. Treatment involves cleaning teeth at and below the gum line and clearing periodontal pockets of bacteria. This helps prevent re-infection and a second wave of gum disease and is a proven method for managing your symptoms, so you can enjoy a healthy smile for life.

Start without surgery.
