Prophylactic cleaning
A prophylactic cleaning is a fundamental preventive procedure in dental hygiene. This treatment focuses on removing plaque and tartar that accumulate on the surface of the teeth and along the gum line. Ideal for patients without active periodontal diseases, it helps prevent cavities and gum diseases, keeping your smile healthy and bright.
Maintenance cleaning
Maintenance cleaning is essential for patients who have been previously treated for periodontal diseases. This regular procedure helps maintain gum health and prevent the recurrence of periodontal diseases. It includes carefully removing plaque and tartar above and below the gum line, as well as polishing the teeth, ensuring optimal oral hygiene.
Deep cleaning
Deep cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing, is a treatment designed for patients with signs of periodontal disease, such as inflamed or bleeding gums and periodontal pockets. This procedure involves the meticulous removal of tartar and plaque from the tooth surfaces and below the gum line, as well as smoothing the roots to promote tissue regeneration and reduction of periodontal pockets. It is a crucial step in restoring and maintaining the health of the gums and the tissues that support the teeth.
