A scaling and root planing aka deep cleaning, is a dental procedure to remove the bacterial plaque that may have collected in the “pockets” that form below the gumline when the gum tissue recedes from the teeth. The goal of the in-office treatment is to help prevent gum disease from advancing to full blown periodontitis which could mean tooth loss and deterioration of the underlying bone structure.
