What is Ultrasonic Scaling?

Scaling removes tartar, plaque and bacteria from the visible tooth surface as well as below the gum line. The procedure is traditionally done with a metal instrument but can cause pain and trauma to the gum tissue and tooth. With ultrasonic scaling, the pain is reduced significantly while effectively removing the tartar buildup. What’s more, patients will spend less time in the chair as this technology provides for a more efficient procedure.

With less trauma to the gum tissue, you’ll feel less discomfort during and after the procedure and gum tissue will heal faster.

I have sensitivity due to receding gums and had to have a cavity filled right at the gum line where it is most sensitive. Even though I’ve been coming here forever I was anxious about it. Everything went smoothly and pain-free.

As a first time patient I found everyone from office to dental chair efficient, courteous, and professional. Help with type of payment to what needed to be done with cleaning, my gums and the need to follow up with an oral surgeon. I am very pleased.
