Deep Teeth Cleaning

When performed by an experienced professional, both deep cleaning and regular cleaning are safe and beneficial. At Kerem Karaçor Dental Clinic, we use ultra-fine ultrasonic tips and work at minimal power settings to ensure that no irreversible damage occurs to your teeth or gums. This careful approach prevents harm to your tooth enamel.

However, if thick tips or high power settings are used during cleaning, it can lead to permanent damage to the tooth enamel. That’s why we prioritize precision and gentleness in every procedure. Our goal is to improve your oral health, not harm it.

Deep teeth cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing, goes beyond the surface to remove plaque and tartar buildup below the gumline. While regular cleanings focus on the visible parts of your teeth, deep cleaning targets the areas that are harder to reach and more critical for long-term gum health. At Kerem Karaçor Dental Clinic, we take our time (about 45 minutes per session) to ensure every detail is addressed, using ultra-fine ultrasonic tips for a gentle yet thorough cleaning.

The frequency of deep cleaning depends on your oral health and hygiene habits. For patients with gum disease or those who struggle to maintain proper oral hygiene, we typically recommend a cleaning every 6 months. For individuals who maintain excellent oral hygiene, a thorough cleaning every 10-12 months is usually sufficient. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your needs and create a personalized plan tailored to you.

Signs like bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, or receding gums may indicate the need for deep cleaning. During your consultation, we’ll perform a thorough examination and recommend the best treatment for you.
