One of the most common treatments for gum disease is “deep cleaning” using scaling and root planing techniques. These two services combined will eliminate the harmful bacteria that has built up below your gumline and created pockets of infection. Left untreated, this infection could eventually cause your teeth to loosen and even fall out.
Our goal with deep cleaning is to stop gum disease long before it ever gets to that point. Here’s what we’ll do to restore your gum health:

I have always hated going to the dentist. I just went in yesterday and everyone was so friendly and the staff go up and beyond to make you feel comfortable. Betty my cleaner was amazing! She made me feel relaxed and actually explained the whole process very thoroughly.
I have been going to Charlotte Dentistry for almost two decades. From braces to implants, they have taken great care of me during that time. Thanks!
Best Dentist Office ever!! The staff is great all the time. I’ve been going 4 years now and had different dental hygienists and all of the are good. I had Lauren the last two times and she is an absolute star. She’s professional, personable and knowledgeable.
I had so many fears about going to the dentist. Dr Burns is the best dentist that I have come in contact since I moved here. I no longer have that fear and it’s because of the whole welcoming atmosphere of Charlotte Dentistry! You guys are the best!
What a great practice. Always professional and courteous. Dr Woodroof is the best dentist I’ve ever had. Her hygienist Leslie is awesome as well.
My experience has been very good 🌟 and most everyone is friendly. The practice is large with a small individual flair for patient care.
Gum disease can be treated in a variety of ways, but the most conservative method is with a deep cleaning known as scaling and root planing. This is where your hygienist removes infection caused by bacterial plaque below and around the gumline and then smooths out the tooth roots so bacteria doesn’t return. Advanced gum disease may require other procedures to rebuild recessed tissue, like grafting, to prevent tooth and bone loss.
Gum disease, also called periodontal disease, is an infection caused by bacteria in your mouth. Bacteria form a clear, sticky film called plaque that build ups around your gumline, leading to inflamed and infected gums. Left untreated, the infection causes your gums to separate from teeth, creating “pockets” where more bacteria accumulates. In advanced stages of gum disease, the infection spreads from your gums to the bone that supports your teeth. Your teeth will loosen and possibly fall out.
No, you can’t cure gum disease at home – not even in its early stages. Gum disease is caused when bacteria-filled plaque and tartar build up in the area between your teeth and gums. This area can’t be reached with a toothbrush or floss. Using special equipment, your dental team removes all of the bacteria from this area and then smoothes your tooth roots to make it difficult for more bacteria to accumulate.
