⁠Scaling And Root Planning

Scaling and Root Planing (SRP) is a non-surgical periodontal treatment aimed at treating gum disease, removing plaque and tartar, and promoting healthy gum attachment to teeth. This deep cleaning procedure is often recommended for patients with gingivitis or early-to-moderate periodontitis.

Why Is Scaling and Root Planing Needed?

• Gum inflammation and bleeding
• Bad breath (halitosis)
• Receding gums and gum pockets
• Tooth sensitivity or mobility
• Risk of tooth loss if untreated
• Scaling and Root Planing helps clean and disinfect these areas to prevent further damage.
