Sherman Oaks Dentist | How Scaling and Root Planing Can Help

Scaling and root planing remove harmful bacteria and tartar buildup beneath the gums, which brushing and flossing cannot reach. At Sherman Oaks Dentist, we use this method to halt the progression of gum disease and allow gums to reattach to clean root surfaces. Deep cleaning is an important part of managing and reversing early-stage periodontitis. Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile, and we can help you protect both. Call us today.
