If you are concerned about the cost of periodontal cleaning, you aren’t alone. Many patients delay care because they fear a high bill, but at Town East Dental Group, we believe in transparent pricing. Restoring your gum health is a vital investment in your overall wellness, and we are here to make it affordable.
While every patient’s needs are unique, here is what you can typically expect for periodontal and preventive care in our office:
- Regular dental cleaning: $50 – $75
- Scaling and root planing (Deep Cleaning): $140 – $210 per quadrant
- Periodontal maintenance (After Therapy): $115 on average
- Gum grafting: Starting at $250
Why Periodontal Treatment is a Vital Investment
Choosing to treat gum disease today is significantly more affordable than the restorative work required if teeth are lost. Beyond your smile, periodontal health is a critical factor in your overall wellness. Clinical studies have linked untreated gum disease to serious systemic issues, including:
- Heart disease and increased stroke risk
- Chronic lung health issues and respiratory infections
- Higher risks of dementia and Alzheimer’s
- Complications with pregnancy and diabetes
Our goal is to provide a gentle and efficient plan that stops bone loss before it requires expensive surgery or dental implants.
Signs You May Need a Deep Cleaning
Gum disease often progresses without pain, making it easy to ignore until it reaches an advanced stage. Catching gingivitis early is the best way to keep your long-term costs low. If the condition advances to periodontitis, it becomes "treatable" rather than "reversible," making professional intervention essential.
Common warning signs include:
- Persistent bad breath that doesn't improve with brushing
- Gums that look red, swollen, or irritated
- Gums that bleed easily when you floss
- Teeth that feel loose or mobile
- Receding gum lines that make your teeth look "longer"
