Dental hygienists undertake deep cleanings, also known as scaling and root planing, to remove agents such as tartar, calculus, and plaque that can induce and intensify illnesses such as gingivitis and periodontal disease.
Dr. Yvonne Caton-Hospedales of Your Smile Dental Wellness Center helps educate patients on the benefits of extensive teeth cleaning when infection and cavities persist.
Our hygienists carefully administer anesthetic to the gums to ensure the patient is comfortable during the deep cleaning. We will also educate them on how they may boost the health of their smiles at home.
Schedule a consultation and initial evaluation to determine whether scaling and root planing are necessary. Don't hesitate to contact us at
