Deep Teeth Cleaning, Root Planing, and Polishing

Deep teeth cleaning, root planing, and polishing are essential dental treatments provided at LA RIMAR CLINIC to maintain oral and gum health. Unlike routine cleanings, these procedures are performed in the clinic using advanced tools and techniques to effectively remove tartar and plaque buildup beneath the gum line.

Importance of Deep Teeth Cleaning and Root Planing

At LA RIMAR CLINIC, our specialists emphasize the importance of deep cleaning and root planing, as tartar buildup along the gum line can lead to gum inflammation, periodontal disease, bleeding, swelling, and gum recession. The key benefits include:

  1. Removal of Deep Tartar – Special instruments are used to break down and remove tartar beneath the gum line, helping to reduce inflammation and improve gum health.
  2. Root Planing – After tartar removal, the Root surfaces are smoothed to minimize bacterial accumulation and support gum reattachment.

Teeth Polishing

Following deep cleaning and root planing at LA RIMAR CLINIC, teeth polishing is performed to remove surface stains and smooth the teeth, making them less prone to future plaque and tartar buildup. Many people seek polishing for brighter, healthier-looking teeth. Benefits include:

  • Enhancing the overall appearance of teeth and providing a natural shine.
  • Removing stains caused by smoking and colored beverages like coffee and tea.
  • Making tooth surfaces smoother, reducing bacterial adhesion.

Key Procedures for Gum Health

Deep teeth cleaning, root planing, and polishing are crucial treatments for addressing gum disease and maintaining healthy gums and teeth. Deep cleaning, or scaling, is performed to remove plaque and tartar buildup that extends below the gumline. Using specialized instruments, the dentist or hygienist carefully cleans the surfaces of the teeth and beneath the gums, eliminating harmful bacteria that can cause inflammation and lead to gum disease. This thorough cleaning helps reduce swelling, bleeding, and discomfort, which are common signs of gum disease.

Root planing is often done in conjunction with deep cleaning when gum disease has progressed beyond the early stages. This procedure involves smoothing the rough surfaces of the tooth roots to remove any remaining tartar and bacteria that may have accumulated. By doing so, it helps the gums reattach to the teeth, preventing further gum recession and infection. After deep cleaning and root planing, the final step is polishing, which smooths out the teeth’ surfaces, making it more difficult for plaque to build up. This final step leaves the teeth feeling clean, smooth, and polished, contributing to long-term gum and tooth health. Together, these procedures are essential for those with periodontal disease or those seeking to prevent further oral health issues.

Quick answers to questions you may have

At LA RIMAR CLINIC, deep cleaning is recommended for individuals with chronic gum inflammation, bleeding gums, deep periodontal pockets, or tartar buildup beneath the gum line, as it helps reduce inflammation and prevent tooth loss.

Deep cleaning may cause some discomfort, especially if there is existing gum inflammation, but it is usually performed under local anesthesia to minimize pain. After the session, some sensitivity or mild swelling may occur, but it typically subsides within a few days.

Polishing removes surface stains, smooths tooth surfaces, and prevents plaque and tartar accumulation, helping maintain healthy teeth while achieving a naturally bright smile.
