Deep Dental Cleanings in Houston

If you are diagnosed with gum disease, our dentist may recommend a deep dental cleaning to help fight the disease and improve your oral health. Also known as prophylaxis, this thorough cleaning works to remove the disease-causing factors in your mouth so that you can once again enjoy a healthy smile.

Deep dental cleanings, also known as prophylaxis, are more involved than your regular dental cleanings with our dentist. Even a perfect home oral hygiene routine cannot protect the sections of your teeth that lie below the gumline. We can offer you a deep dental cleaning for preventive treatment below the gumline and in other potentially problematic areas, removing the tartar and plaque that build up there. To learn more about deep dental cleanings in Houston, Texas, contact us to schedule a consultation with Dr. Kamila Husain.

Our dentist will scale your tooth and polish it to make it smoother and less likely to attract bacteria and other harmful deposits in the future. This helps prevent gum disease from worsening and begins the healing process to restore your oral health. Our dentist may also take the opportunity to check your mouth for any other problematic developments below the gumline, such as tooth decay.

If you have periodontal disease, you should receive deep dental cleanings on a regular basis to help prevent more severe damage from gum disease and bone loss in the future. Our dentist will evaluate your mouth to determine the severity of your periodontal disease and recommend a schedule of regular treatments to help keep your mouth free from gum disease.

We invite you to contact our office today to learn more about prophylaxis and schedule your appointment with our experienced dentist.
