Frequently Asked Questions for Deep Cleaning
How effective is Arestin compared to deep cleaning alone?
<p>Studies show that Arestin combined with scaling and root planing reduces <strong>pocket depth significantly more</strong> than deep cleaning alone. The antibiotic continues working for weeks after application, giving your gums the best chance to reattach and heal properly.</p>
What is a deep cleaning and how is it different from a regular cleaning?
<p>A <strong>regular cleaning</strong> removes plaque and tartar above the gumline. A <strong>deep cleaning (scaling and root planing)</strong> goes below the gumline to remove bacteria, tartar, and toxins from the root surfaces. It's prescribed when there are signs of <strong>gum disease</strong> like deep pockets or bone loss.</p>
Is a deep cleaning painful?
<p>We use <strong>local anesthesia to numb the area</strong>, so the procedure itself is comfortable. You may experience some sensitivity and mild soreness for a few days afterward. Over-the-counter pain medication and warm salt water rinses help manage any discomfort.</p>
How long does a deep cleaning take?
<p>A deep cleaning typically takes <strong>1 to 2 hours</strong> depending on the severity. It may be done in one visit or split across two visits (upper and lower arches separately). We'll determine the best approach at your evaluation.</p>
How often do I need a deep cleaning?
<p>Most patients need a deep cleaning <strong>once</strong>, followed by more frequent <strong>maintenance cleanings every 3–4 months</strong> (called periodontal maintenance) to keep gum disease under control. Your dentist will create a personalized schedule based on your progress.</p>
Does insurance cover deep cleaning?
<p>Yes, most <strong>PPO dental insurance plans cover scaling and root planing</strong> when diagnosed with periodontal disease. Coverage details vary by plan. Our team verifies your benefits and provides a breakdown of costs before treatment begins.</p>
How is gum disease treated?
<p>Treatment depends on severity. <strong>Gingivitis</strong> responds to professional cleaning and better brushing habits. <strong>Periodontitis</strong> requires deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), possibly Arestin antibiotic therapy, laser gum treatment, and ongoing maintenance cleanings every 3–4 months.</p>
