What is a scaling and root planning or SRP?
This is a type of cleaning that is more than a preventive cleaning. It involves
cleaning below the gums with the use of anaesthetic.
Why do I need a scaling and root planning?
Your gums are inflamed and you have deep pockets calculus build up on the root
of the tooth.
What are the levels of cleaning?
PX- is a regular every 6 month cleaning
Full Mouth Debridement or FMD is a more involved cleaning than a px meaning
you have more build up than usual we may also use this as a step before we do a
SRP to remove build up above the gums.
SRP is a type of cleaning where you have to be numbed up and they go down past
your gums.
Why do they have different levels of cleanings?
They have this to suit your needs for proper dental care.
How often should I have a cleaning?
For most patients, we recommend an examination and cleaning every 6 months.
Some patients require more or less frequent visits depending upon each
individual's oral health.
Is there a treatment for sensitive teeth?
Yes. Sensitive teeth often result from exposed root surfaces due to gum recession
or through loss of enamel as a result of excessive tooth wear from clenching or
grinding and/or erosion from acidic foods or acid reflux. Toothpaste for sensitive
teeth oftentimes will reduce or relieve tooth sensitivity. Other treatment options
include application of desensitizing agents by your dentist, prescription for
self-applied fluoride agents and/or placement of fillings. If persistent or increased
sensitivity continues, further evaluation by a dentist is recommended to rule out
split or cracked teeth or faulty fillings
