Plaque is always forming on your teeth, but if they aren\u2019t cleaned well, the bacteria in plaque can cause your gums to become inflamed. When this happens, your gums will pull away from your teeth and form spaces called pockets. Plaque then gets trapped in these pockets and cannot be removed with regular brushing. If untreated, gum disease could lead to bone and tooth loss.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4434 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Dental-Hygiene-300x200.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Dental-Hygiene-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Dental-Hygiene-580x387.jpeg 580w, https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Dental-Hygiene.jpeg 710w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If gum disease is caught early and hasn\u2019t damaged the structures below the gum line, a professional cleaning should do. If the pockets between your gums and teeth are too deep, however, scaling and root planing may be needed.<\/p>\n<p>A\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/jada.ada.org\/article\/S0002-8177%2815%2900346-3\/abstract\">July 2015 study<\/a>\u00a0in the Journal of the American Dental Association finds that scaling and root planing is beneficial to patients with chronic periodontitis (gum disease that has advanced past gingivitis). Chronic periodontitis affects 47.2% of adults over 30 in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>This deep cleaning has two parts. Scaling is when your dentist removes all the plaque and tartar (hardened plaque) above and below the gumline, making sure to clean all the way down to the bottom of the pocket. Your dentist will then begin root planing, smoothing out your teeth roots to help your gums reattach to your teeth. Scaling and root planing may take more than one visit to complete and may require a local anesthetic.<\/p>\n<h4>After Care Tips<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/dental-hygiene.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-4433 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/dental-hygiene-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/dental-hygiene-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/dental-hygiene-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/dental-hygiene-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/dental-hygiene-580x326.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/dental-hygiene-860x484.jpg 860w, https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/dental-hygiene-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/www.ortacadis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/dental-hygiene.jpg 1680w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>After a deep cleaning, you may have pain for a day or two and teeth sensitivity for up to a week. Your gums also may be swollen, feel tender and bleed.<\/p>\n<p>To prevent infection, control pain or help you heal, your dentist may prescribe a pill or mouth rinse. Your dentist may also insert medication (subantimicrobial-dose doxycycline) directly into the pocket that was cleaned.<\/p>\n<p>We will schedule another visit to see how your gums have healed and measure the depth of your pockets.
