Diagnosis
We perform a detailed evaluation of gum health to identify early stages of disease and create a customized treatment plan. Our team carefully measures gum pockets and looks for signs of inflammation or bone loss. Early diagnosis allows us to treat problems before they become more advanced.
Deep Cleaning
Scaling and root planing remove plaque and tartar buildup below the gumline, restoring gum health and comfort. This deep cleaning process helps eliminate harmful bacteria that cause infection and irritation. The treatment also supports healing and reduces the risk of future gum disease progression.
