Scaling & Root Planing

Deep Cleaning for Healthy Gums

Scaling and root planing at Desert Pearl Dentistry in Rancho Mirage is a non-surgical treatment designed to treat gum disease and improve oral health. This deep cleaning procedure involves removing plaque and tartar buildup from below the gum line (scaling) and smoothing the tooth roots to promote healthy gum reattachment (root planing). It’s a thorough cleaning that targets areas regular brushing and flossing can’t reach.
