You may not know that the biggest cause of gum disease is the buildup of plaque and tartar on the surfaces of your teeth. Our dental hygienists can give your teeth a deep cleaning to help prevent gum disease and allow your tooth roots to re-form healthy attachments to your jawbone. If you would like to schedule an appointment with one of our hygienists for scaling and root planing in Milwaukie, call 503-659-2522.
