Scaling & Root Planing Calgary
Dental scaling and root planing is a deep cleaning treatment designed to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria and biofilm from above and below the gumline. This non-surgical procedure helps treat gum disease by cleaning the tooth roots and smoothing their surfaces, making it more difficult for bacteria to build up.
Scaling and root planing can reduce gum inflammation, improve gum health, and help prevent further damage to the supporting structures of your teeth. Depending on the severity of your gum disease, the treatment may be completed over one or more appointments, sometimes needing topical or local anesthesia to ensure your comfort.
Maintaining good oral hygiene at home and attending regular dental hygiene maintenance after treatment is essential for keeping your gums healthy and preventing future periodontal problems.
Protect Your Smile
You only get one set of adult teeth — and gum disease is the leading cause of tooth loss. Thankfully, it’s also highly preventable. Regular visits to your hygienist can stop gum disease in its early stages and help manage conditions like periodontitis. Dental scaling and root planing can slow or even halt its progression, helping you maintain a strong, healthy smile for years to come.
Keep Your Natural Teeth for Life
Modern dental care makes it more achievable than ever to keep your natural teeth for life. Regular hygiene appointments help prevent decay, maintain gum health, and catch issues early — often reducing the need for more invasive (and costly) treatments like fillings, crowns, or extractions down the road.
In fact, consistent preventive care might actually mean fewer visits to the dentist overall.
Say Goodbye to Bad Breath
Chronic bad breath (halitosis) is often caused by plaque and bacteria hiding below the gum line. Regular cleanings help eliminate these odor-causing culprits, giving you fresher breath and renewed confidence.
The Takeaway
Your dental hygienist plays a key role in your oral health — helping you prevent disease, protect your natural teeth, and feel great about your smile.
