Periodontal Scaling & Root Planing

The objective of scaling & root planing is to remove etiologic agents which cause inflammation to the gingival (gum) tissue and surrounding bone. Common etiologic agents removed by this conventional periodontal therapy include dental plaque and tartar (calculus).

Scaling and root planing can be used both as a preventative measure and as a stand-alone treatment.

If you have any concerns or questions about scaling and root planing treatment, please ask Dr. Guier.

Testimonials

"My daughter Kristilyn went in for a procedure and Dr. Guier and his staff were very polite and helpful. Wish I could give them 10 stars."

"Best dental experience I've ever had. I've seen Dr Guier (and his staff) on numerous occasions and have never been disappointed. You can tell Dr. Guier loves what he does. His dental hygienist Ashley is great. Both are very kind, explain what they're doing and take the time to make you feel comfortable. Pricing is more than fair.
I have a terrible fear when it comes to dentistry and they make me feel at ease during my appointments.
I cannot recommend them enough. I would not go anywhere else.

If you need to see a periodontist then you need to see Dr. Guier."

"Sometimes having a good bed side manner is the best thing to have in a review. This is one of those occasions. This dentist is really awesome. I've been allowing him to dig in my mouth for a decade. And he's the best. But he don't work with insurance so. .......... actually they will submit your paperwork. You just gotta pay in full."

"Dr. Guier is an excellent periodontist and I highly recommend him without hesitation. I had damaged a tooth in a fall and Dr Guier placed a dental implant in its place. I am amazed at the results; it looks, feels and performs like my actual tooth.

From the beginning Dr. Guier thoroughly explained the procedure using models and even short videos and patiently answered all my questions. I was also able to get information from Dr. Guier's website that was most helpful as well.

The procedure was painless and I am thoroughly pleased with the results.
Dr. Guier and his staff were very friendly, caring, and professional.
