FAQs
What is a deep oral cleaning and how is it different from a regular cleaning?
A deep oral cleaning, often called scaling and root planing, goes beyond a regular cleaning by targeting areas beneath the gumline to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria that contribute to gum disease. In contrast, a regular cleaning focuses on the visible surfaces of the teeth and along the gumline as a preventive measure for maintaining overall oral health.
How long does a deep cleaning appointment take?
The deep cleaning procedure usually takes 1-2 hours.
Is deep cleaning done in one visit or multiple?
Often your dentist or dental hygienist will recommend doing one side of your mouth at a time, in which case you will need two separate appointments for deep cleaning your whole mouth.
How do I know if I need a deep cleaning?
Your dentist or dental hygienist may recommend deep cleaning to help reverse certain dental issues like inflamed and swollen gums as well as to prevent others like cavities and gum disease.
How much does a deep cleaning cost?
Deep cleaning can cost up to $1,600, and it largely varies with your dental professional’s fees and dental insurance. If x-rays are needed, it may cost more.
