Improve your dental health with Dr. Jeffrey K. H. Ching
Our regular & deep cleanings remove plaque and tartar to protect your teeth and gums. The type you need depends on the health of your gums and how much buildup is present.
A routine visit, also called a prophylaxis, clears plaque and tartar above the gumline and polishes your teeth. Most patients benefit from one every six months as part of preventive care.
A deeper treatment, known as scaling and root planing, addresses gum disease by cleaning below the gumline and smoothing the tooth roots. This helps gums reattach and heal. We may numb the area for comfort and recommend more frequent maintenance visits afterward.
