Revitalize Your Oral Health with Profound Deep Cleaning

Dr. Wendell King at King Dental, Salem, OR, stands ready to rejuvenate your oral health with an intensive deep cleaning procedure, also known as dental prophylaxis. This thorough cleaning process is paramount for halting the progression of serious dental disorders like periodontal disease or gingivitis.

Understanding the Need for Deep Cleaning

Infection can occur below the gum line due to bacteria, leading to tender or bleeding gums. Left untreated, this infection destroys gum and bone tissue, causing teeth to shift and eventually fall out. This makes a timely deep cleaning crucial.

  • Early Identification of Health Issues: Regular deep cleaning allows Dr. King to detect potential health issues, emphasizing the vital role of oral health in overall well-being.
  • Enhanced Aesthetics: Rediscover a brighter, stain-free smile with our meticulous cleaning process.
  • Fresh Breath: Alleviate bad breath caused by periodontal disease, improving overall oral hygiene.

  3. Root Planing: Smoothing tooth roots to deter future bacterial attachment.
