Professional periodontal therapy is performed under general anaesthesia and includes supra-and subgingival scaling, root planing and tooth crown polishing. The aim of treatment differs when the patient has gingivitis only or if there is also periodontitis. Professional periodontal treatment is carried out to deal with plaque retentive surfaces and reduce areas of plaque stagnation, ensuring the mouth is then in the best condition to enable the client to provide ongoing plaque control.
