Our dentist will examine your mouth for signs of gum disease as part of your dental exams and if you are diagnosed will work with you to create a treatment plan to fight the disease and improve your oral health. In many cases, scaling and root planing is the first periodontal treatment recommended after diagnoses, as it works to remove disease-causing factors from your mouth. Call Norwood Dental Center at 781-762-3529 to set up your appointment with Dr. Wonsuk Joo and learn more about scaling and root planing in Norwood, Massachusetts.
