Deep Cleaning (Scaling & Root Planing)
BOOK NOWRestore Healthy Gums with Professional Deep Cleaning
Gum disease often begins silently, with symptoms like bleeding gums, bad breath, or mild inflammation that many people overlook. As bacteria spread beneath the gumline, they can damage the tissues and bone supporting your teeth. A deep cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing, is one of the most effective non-surgical treatments for stopping gum disease before it progresses.
At Risus Dental Studio, we provide personalized deep cleaning treatments designed to remove harmful bacteria, promote healthy healing, and protect your long-term oral health. Dr. David E. Gonzalez uses advanced techniques and a gentle approach to help patients restore healthier gums in a comfortable, welcoming environment.
What Is Deep Cleaning (Scaling & Root Planing)?
Scaling and root planing is a non-surgical periodontal treatment that removes plaque, tartar, and bacteria from below the gumline while smoothing the surfaces of the tooth roots.
Unlike a routine dental cleaning, a deep cleaning targets the areas where harmful bacteria accumulate beneath the gums. By eliminating these deposits, the gums are better able to heal and reattach to the teeth, helping reduce inflammation and slow the progression of periodontal disease.
Deep cleaning is commonly recommended for patients diagnosed with gingivitis or early to moderate periodontitis.

What Can Deep Cleaning Treat?
Scaling and root planing is an effective treatment for managing gum disease and improving overall gum health.
It may help treat:
- Gingivitis.
- Early to moderate periodontitis.
- Bleeding gums.
- Swollen or inflamed gums.
- Deep periodontal pockets.
- Plaque and tartar buildup below the gumline.
- Chronic bad breath caused by bacteria.
- Gum irritation and tenderness.
