Bleeding gums or persistent bad breath? Deep cleaning treats the root cause — 15 minutes from Pallikaranai.

5 km from clinic15 minutes by auto/car

Gum disease is silently common — over 60% of Indian adults over 35 have some form of it. Many Pallikaranai residents only discover they need deep gum cleaning when a routine dental visit reveals significant tartar below the gum line. Left untreated, this progresses to bone loss and eventually tooth loss.

Warning Signs That Matter

  • Gums bleed when brushing or flossing
  • Persistent bad breath even after brushing
  • Gums looking red or swollen
  • Teeth feeling slightly loose
  • Gums pulling back from teeth

If any of these apply, book a periodontal evaluation. Deep cleaning is inexpensive compared to treating advanced periodontal disease later.

The Process

How Deep Gum Cleaning Works

A clear, step-by-step process — no surprises. Every step is explained before it happens.

1

Examination

Thorough assessment of gum health, pocket depths, and tartar buildup using periodontal probing.

2

Scaling

Ultrasonic and hand instruments remove plaque and tartar from tooth surfaces above and below the gum line.

3

Root Planing

Tooth root surfaces are smoothed to remove bacterial toxins and promote gum reattachment.

4

Follow-Up Care

Re-evaluation after 4-6 weeks to monitor healing. Maintenance cleanings scheduled every 3-4 months.

Common Questions

Deep Gum Cleaning in Pallikaranai — FAQs

Answers to the questions Pallikaranai patients most often ask before booking.

Will deep cleaning fix my bad breath?

In most cases, yes. Persistent bad breath usually comes from bacterial buildup below the gum line — a place brushing can't reach. Deep cleaning removes this reservoir, and most patients notice dramatic improvement within a week.

How is scaling different from deep cleaning?

Standard scaling removes plaque above the gum line — a 30-minute polish. Deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) goes below the gum line, treats periodontal pockets, and smooths root surfaces to allow gum reattachment.

Is dental insurance accepted?

Yes — for most Indian dental insurance plans. Basic scaling is usually fully covered, deep cleaning partially. We help with paperwork before treatment.
