Scaling & Root Planing in Lorton
Residents of Lorton, a growing southern Fairfax County community near the Occoquan River and the Workhouse Arts Center, now have convenient access to expert scaling & root planing care at Precision Periodontics & Implant Dentistry in nearby Alexandria. 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.
We welcome patients from Lorton and surrounding areas to our Alexandria office, conveniently located about 20 minutes away. 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.
