Healthier gums lead to a healthier smile

While gum disease is common, that doesn’t reduce the risk it poses to your oral and full body health. Once discovered, it needs to be eradicated decisively. If not, periodontal disease can lead to lost teeth, bone loss, or other serious issues.

With scaling and root planing services from Periodontics & Implantology At Cornerstone, we can treat moderate to advanced gum disease by cleaning underneath your gums. At your appointment, we’ll fully explain the details of this treatment and the state of your gum health.

Remove bacteria and tartar without surgery

When gum disease advances, bacteria and plaque develop under the gum tissue, causing a range of issues. With a scaling and root planing procedure, otherwise known as deep cleaning, our periodontists will carefully remove plaque and tartar from under the gum line and clean the roots of your teeth. This stops the spread of gum disease and naturally restores the strength of your teeth and gums.
