Why Deep Cleaning?

SRP or Deep Gum Cleaning. Susie came to me “Doctor, my back teeth got loose after I ate ice cream this week.” I examined her teeth and found she already had a couple of loose molars and never had a deep cleaning. The bacteria from ice cream, loves your teeth. They adhere to teeth and use it as their house. Unfortunately, these Periodontal bacteria and humans are not symbiotic. They will break your gum and bone to use it as their energy source. This harmful process is called periodontitis. “Chronic silent infection in your bone and gum”. Regular cleaning will not remove this group of bacteria from your mouth. We need special tools, sometimes Laser to remove bacteria which resides deeply under your gum.
