Scaling & Root Planing
Deep cleaning treatment to remove tartar below the gumline and promote gum healing.
TheScaling&RootPlaningProcess
Scaling and root planing is a non-surgical deep cleaning procedure that treats gum disease by removing plaque and tartar from below the gumline and smoothing the root surfaces. At Schonsee Dental in Edmonton, this procedure is one of the most effective treatments for moderate to advanced periodontal disease.
This two-part procedure involves scaling (removing tartar and bacterial deposits from both above and below the gumline) followed by root planing, which smooths the tooth root surfaces. This smooth surface helps the gums reattach to the teeth and makes it harder for bacteria to accumulate.
- Ultrasonic and hand scaling to remove deposits
- Root surface smoothing to promote healing
- Local anesthesia for patient comfort
- Treatment may be completed in one or more visits
