If you have been diagnosed with periodontal disease (gum disease), your clinician may recommend a deep cleaning. Once bacteria have gathered in the gum pockets, they have numerous factors that can destroy healthy bone and gum tissue surrounding the teeth. The pockets will then extend to larger depths that a toothbrush and floss simply can't reach.
