]]> At Plaza Dental Care, our dentists, Dr. Sean and Dr. Sepi offer scaling and root planing for our patients who find themselves fighting chronic gum disease. Also known as periodontal disease, this is a highly treatable oral disease, especially in the early stages. In this stage, our dentists can often turn around gum disease with this non-surgical deep cleaning treatment.

Along with improved dental hygiene, including brushing and flossing daily to remove that bacterial film called plaque, scaling and root planing can help your gums avoid the more destructive stages that can occur as the gums progress in infection.

When you receive a scaling and root planing treatment, plaque and tartar (or hardened plaque) is removed below the gums by your dentist. This is the scaling treatment. To do the root planing, your dentist will clean your tooth roots, and the bacteria on the roots will be smoothed away (planing). Doing this will help you to keep your supportive bone material intact and prevent tooth loss.

While this is a painless procedure, some patients prefer breaking it up into several appointments where one section is deep cleaned at a time. We also offer sedative options for those patients who have dental anxiety and wish to be as comfortable as possible during procedures. Our goal is to provide you with the quality care you need in the comfort you deserve.

Our dentists in Vallejo, California, are ready to give you the help you need to overcome chronic gum disease. We invite you to schedule a scaling and root planing treatment with our Plaza Dental Care team at 707-642-1360.

]]> Although mouthwash should never be substituted as a replacement for either brushing or flossing your teeth, it remains a highly effective oral health care treatment tool to consider as a supplementary cleaning utensil for your oral health care.

Be aware that mouthwash products vary depending on the benefits they are seeking to achieve. Some mouthwash products focus on freshening breath, while others rely on whitening your teeth, providing fluoride treatments, or reducing plaque buildup.

When searching for a mouthwash product to use, always look for the ADA Seal of Acceptance. The seal is given out by the American Dental Association and signifies the product has met the highest standards of safety and efficiency. For additional product suggestions and recommendations, you can always speak with your dentist. No matter which product you choose, make sure that the mouthwash product meets the goals you’re looking for.

If you are looking to restore your smile with effective oral health care treatments, contact Dr. Khashayar Khomejany and our team at Plaza Dental Care. We can be reached by calling us at 707-642-1360 to book a reservation to see us at our office in Vallejo, California. We can get you on the path to smiles for miles!
