Past a certain point, gum disease becomes permanent. But in the initial stages, it can be successfully addressed and, in some cases, may even be reversed. If you have noticed the first indicators of periodontal disease, call Fox Valley Dental at 920-725-1327. One of our team members can schedule you for an appointment for scaling and root planing in Neenah, Wisconsin, with our dentist, Dr. Joseph Olsen.
One of the first treatments our dentist may recommend to treat gum disease is scaling and root planing. Scaling and root planing is a type of deep dental cleaning designed to remove harmful bacteria, plaque, and tartar from your mouth and halt the progression of the disease. It is highly effective in treating the earlier stages of gum disease, especially when combined with other periodontal treatments.
