Deep Cleanings

At Hawthorne Dental & Braces, we provide deep dental cleanings to treat gum disease and protect your long-term oral health. This specialized cleaning goes beyond routine care to remove harmful bacteria and buildup below the gumline.

What Is a Deep Cleaning?

A deep cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing, is a treatment used to manage gum disease. It involves removing plaque and tartar from below the gumline and smoothing the tooth roots to help gums reattach and heal.

When Is a Deep Cleaning Needed?

Deep cleanings are typically recommended if signs of gum disease are present, including:
  • Bleeding or swollen gums
  • Persistent bad breath
  • Gum recession
  • Buildup below the gumline
  • Bone loss around teeth

Early treatment can help prevent more advanced periodontal issues.

The Deep Cleaning Process

The procedure is usually completed over one or more visits, depending on your needs. We carefully clean beneath the gums and smooth the roots to eliminate bacteria and promote healing. Local anesthesia may be used to ensure your comfort throughout the process.

Benefits of Deep Cleanings

This treatment plays a key role in restoring and maintaining gum health:
  • Reduces inflammation and bleeding
  • Helps prevent progression of gum disease
  • Protects bone and tooth structure
  • Improves overall oral health
  • Supports long-term tooth stability
