Relation between Scaling and Gum Diseases

If you have a Gum disease and you have a good to fair prognosis than the teeth can be saved for a period of time, root planing and scaling is the initial phase of treatment. The status of gums and periodontal ligament tissues is directly related to the oral hygiene status of the patient.

Due to the presence of calculus, there is poor status of gums resulting in the periodontal diseases. Once, the scaling is performed, the gum diseases can be arrested to some extent, reversed and restore dental health .Maintenance of oral hygiene along with good oral habits also helps to prevent the gum diseases.

Teeth Scaling and Oral Habits

Teeth Scaling cannot be effective if the patient has a habit of Cigarette Smoking, Consumption of smokeless tobacco like Betel nuts, Areca nuts, Paan, Gutkha. Therefore, all these habits should be stopped in order to maintain good oral hygiene and scaling be effective.

Teeth Scaling and Sensitivity

Dental scaling can sometimes be uncomfortable particularly if you have exposed root surfaces due to receding gums. If so, local anesthesia can be offered in order to numb that area and make the procedure more comfortable.
