Depending on the patient's bone level, gum health, and amount of subgingival calculus, a patient may need scaling and root planing ("deep cleanings"), which is recommended to be done with local anesthetic.
it depends on how sensitive your teeth and gums are. If you are sensitive, we can definitely numb you with our numbing oral rinse. best part- its needle free!
