Periodontal Deep Cleaning (Scaling & Root Planing) in Concord, CA Healing Hands Dental
Stop gum disease in its tracks with non-surgical periodontal deep cleaning at Healing Hands Dental in Concord, CA with Dr. Nasreen Nangoli. Also called scaling and root planing, this proven treatment removes plaque and tartar below the gum line and smooths tooth roots to help gums reattach — usually without surgery.
Why you may need deep cleaning
Regular cleanings only clean above the gum line. If you have bleeding gums, bad breath, receding gums, or pockets deeper than 4 mm, you need deep cleaning to stop periodontal disease before it causes tooth loss.
