Are your teeth sensitive to hot drinks or cold beverages? Do you notice blood when you’re brushing your teeth or rinsing with mouth wash? If you are experiencing these symptoms, you are probably one of the many who suffer from gum disease. In its early stages, gum disease is not damaging to your smile, but if allowed to progress it can cause debilitating harm to your oral health, which could require surgery to correct. The best way to combat gum disease is with professional periodontal cleanings from your local
Chaplin dental office. At Longobardi Dentistry our gentle hygienists can provide an effective treatment for your gum disease to halt the damage before it’s too late.
Periodontal cleanings are far different than your average comprehensive dental cleaning, which adults should be receiving at least twice a year. Where a comprehensive cleaning focus on the dentin and your tooth’s surface in general, a professional periodontal cleaning at your trusted
Chaplin dental office truly targets the source of your ailment. A professional periodontal cleaning is the extra appointment that will save you a great deal of work in the future by cleaning out the cause of your gum disease before it can harm your smile. Gum disease in later stages can cause gum, teeth, and even bone loss in your jaws without professional cleanings and care to keep it in check.

Deep professional cleanings known as planing and scaling may sound nerve wracking, but they are truly not painful at all. The staff of our
Chaplin dental office will utilize local anesthetic as requested to minimize any pain you may feel if you have sensitive gums from your case of periodontitis. By gentle pulling the gum line back from your teeth, our experienced hygienists can remove the hardened plaque and tarter, which play host to the bacteria that work to eat away at your gum line over time, forming large gaps between your gum line and your teeth. Your doctor will also smooth out any rough spots on your teeth, which is the process known as scaling, to insure that there are no areas for plaque to easily take hold and build-up upon.
At the Longobardi Dentistry our staff will work with you to give a healthy smile through effective periodontal cleanings. Dr. Mark Longobardi, DMD has been proudly serving his community through your local
Chaplin dental office for over twenty years of personal and professional service that will truly work alongside you to meet your personal needs, no matter if your case of gum disease is hereditary, or cause by poor dental hygiene. Our welcoming and knowledgeable staff will answer all of your questions and concerns about gum disease for treatment that will keep your smile healthy and beautiful.
