Does overcleaning of the teeth (at the dentist's) cause damage?

I had two deep scalings (which required local anesthesiaand included rescalings one week afterwards) within 5 months of each other. Now part of my mouth has complications.


I have been told at the dentist's that a pocket can form when a deep scaling has been performed, which can fester and abcess. I was not informed about this possibility beforehand and don't want to be too naive, especially if bone damage has been caused by the infection afterward. What is the ADS recommended length of time between deep scalings and how common is infection afterwards?

Yes when you do deep cleaning your gums are more vulnerable to bacteria, but the dentist should have given you a saline-solution rinse to keep the exposed areas clean while your gums have time to heal. Usually deep cleanings are done in quadrants, so that one week youll go in and get one half of your mouth scaled, and then you should get an appointment for the following week to get the second. its best to wait atleast six-months, but if you keep good oral hygiene you might not even need another deep-scaling. I highly recommend that you floss everyday and get that bacteria out between the contacts, and in about 2-3 weeks, you should see some noticeable improvement. Infection is common because patients do not follow up on the necessary upkeep of oral hygiene, but patients who floss regularly, rarely have this problem.
Reply:You should be carefull of the fact that the cleaning paste will rub the gum area of your mouth and unseen bleedin can start up from that, it's the use of the paste over and over so rest your mouth.
