Scaling & Root Planing in Dulles
Patients throughout Dulles choose Precision Periodontics & Implant Dentistry for scaling & root planing because of our team's reputation for meticulous periodontal care and outstanding outcomes. Scaling and root planing is a deep cleaning procedure that removes plaque, tartar, and bacterial toxins from below the gum line and smooths the tooth root surfaces to promote gum reattachment.
Many of our scaling & root planing patients travel from Dulles — a drive of only about 20 minutes — because they value the combination of periodontal expertise and personalized attention we provide. This is often the first line of treatment for periodontal disease. By thoroughly cleaning the root surfaces, scaling and root planing allows the gum tissue to heal and reattach to the teeth, reducing pocket depths.
