A Deep Cleaning Can Prevent Gum Disease
Protect Your Gums, Preserve Your Smile
At Dr. Gogia’s Super Specialty Dental Care Centre, we believe that a healthy smile starts with healthy gums. While regular brushing and flossing are crucial, they may not always be enough to stop gum disease in its early stages. This is where deep cleaning—also known as scaling and root planing—plays a vital role.
In this blog, we’ll explain how deep cleaning works, when it’s needed, and how it helps prevent and reverse gum disease before it causes permanent damage.

What is Gum Disease?
Gum disease, or periodontal disease, is a bacterial infection of the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. It generally develops in two stages:
1. Gingivitis
Early stage
Gums become red, swollen, and bleed easily
Usually reversible with professional cleaning and good oral hygiene
2. Periodontitis
Advanced stage
The infection spreads to the bone
Can lead to tooth mobility and loss
Requires more intensive treatment like deep cleaning or even surgery

What Causes Gum Disease?
The primary culprit is plaque—a sticky film of bacteria that builds up on your teeth every day. When plaque isn’t removed through daily brushing and professional cleanings, it hardens into tartar (calculus), which harbors harmful bacteria and irritates the gums.
Contributing factors include:
Poor oral hygiene
Smoking or tobacco use
Diabetes
Hormonal changes (e.g., pregnancy)
Genetic predisposition
Crooked or misaligned teeth
Dry mouth

What is Deep Cleaning?
Deep cleaning is a non-surgical procedure performed under local anesthesia. It involves two key steps:
1. Scaling
Removes plaque and tartar deposits from:
Above the gumline (visible)
Below the gumline (in the pockets)
2. Root Planing
Smoothens the root surfaces so bacteria can’t easily adhere. It also helps the gums reattach to the tooth surfaces.
This reduces pocket depth and halts the progression of gum disease.

How Deep Cleaning Prevents Gum Disease
Here’s how deep cleaning protects your oral health:
Removes Tartar
Tartar can only be removed by dental professionals. If left untreated, it triggers inflammation and infection.
Reduces Inflammation
Cleaning below the gumline eliminates bacteria that cause swelling, bleeding, and tenderness.
Promotes Gum Reattachment
Smooth root surfaces help the gums heal and reattach properly.
Prevents Bone Loss
By controlling infection early, deep cleaning protects the underlying jawbone.
Avoids Tooth Loss
Untreated gum disease is the 1 cause of tooth loss in adults. Deep cleaning interrupts the damage before it gets too far.
