Dental cleanings

• Prophylaxis - (healthy hygiene visit) 

This type of hygiene visit is designed for patients who are healthy overall who have minimal plaque and tartar build up and localized inflammation/bleeding if any.

• ​Scaling in presence of inflammation - (gingivitis cleaning) 

This type of hygiene visit is designed for adults and children with overall inflammation, bleeding, and moderate to heavy plaque and tartar build up. Due to the amount bacterial growth more time is needed to complete the procedure.​

• Full mouth debridement - (removal of heavy tartar to determine course of action) 

This type of hygiene visit is designed for patients that have gone for longer spans of time without routine care. When tartar build up limits the ability to diagnose the overall health of tooth structure and gingiva. This visit will be followed by a subsequent dental hygiene visit that will be determined based on the initial findings.

• Non-surgical gum therapy - (scaling and root planning or deep cleaning):

1-3 teeth (per quadrant) 

4+ teeth (per quadrant) 

​This type of hygiene visit is designed for patients with active periodontal disease. Bone loss/recession/inflammation and bleeding are present. This is the removal of bacteria from above and below the gum tissue. This type of procedure is completed in two visits, each lasting two hours per visit. Non-surgical gum therapy gives patients experiencing active periodontal disease the therapy they need in order to stabilize and arrest their condition. We will utilize high strength topical anesthetics to make sure you are comfortable. This type of procedure is followed by three or four month periodontal maintenance appointments to manage and maintain the disease.  Patients with more advanced needs may need to be referred to a specialist.​

• Periodontal maintenance - (follows non-surgical gum therapy) 

This procedure follows the completion of non-surgical therapy. Patients will be given customized homecare plans. With more advanced hygiene visits and frequent periodontal evaluations, the goal is to minimize and arrest disease. It will aid in reducing future bone loss and recession. 

• Child prophylaxis - (healthy hygiene visit)
