Periodontal Maintenance in Concord, CA
Healing Hands Dental
Keep gum disease under control with regular periodontal maintenance cleanings at Healing Hands Dental in Concord, CA with Dr. Nasreen Nangoli and our experienced hygienists. After completing deep cleaning (scaling & root planing), this specialized cleaning every 3–4 months prevents the disease from returning and saves your teeth long-term.
Why periodontal maintenance is essential
Standard 6-month cleanings aren’t enough once you’ve had gum disease. Periodontal maintenance goes deeper to remove plaque and tartar below the gum line, measure pocket depths, and stop the infection from coming back — proven to keep teeth for decades.

-
Pocket depth measurements and gum health check
