Gum Infection Treatment

Scaling and Root Planing
When gum disease begins to produce symptoms such as bleeding, inflammation, or recession, Dr. Paes may recommend a deep cleaning to reverse the condition. A deep cleaning is a painless and very effective therapy for treating gum disease. Using special dental instruments, we will thoroughly clean tartar buildup and bacteria from the tooth surfaces. This is known as scaling. The root planing portion of the procedure involves smoothing out your tooth roots to encourage the gums to reattach. Scaling and root planing represent an effective combination therapy that produces excellent, long-lasting results.
Regardless of how severe your gum disease is, you can rely on Town Center Dental of LaGrange to offer affordable care and top-ranked service. We believe that everyone deserves to have a healthy and beautiful smile throughout all stages of life.
