BELL CANYON & HIDDEN HILLS' PREFERRED GENERAL DENTIST
Are you concerned about persistent gum discomfort or worried about the long-term health of your teeth? Have you been told that a regular cleaning might not be enough to tackle the plaque and tartar beneath your gum line? At SMILE HAUS, we recognize the crucial role of deep cleanings, also known as scaling and root planing, in preventing and treating periodontal disease. Our skilled team is committed to providing this meticulous treatment, ensuring your gums and teeth receive the comprehensive care they deserve.
SIGNS YOU NEED A DEEP CLEANING
Deep cleanings are specifically designed to address certain oral health issues. You might need this treatment if you notice:
- Gums that bleed easily during brushing or flossing
- Persistent bad breath or a bad taste in your mouth
- Gums that are receding or pulling away from your teeth
- Pockets between your teeth and gums
- Loose or shifting teeth
WHO IS A CANDIDATE FOR DEEP CLEANINGS?
Deep cleanings are not for everyone, but they are crucial for individuals with specific dental health concerns. Candidates typically include those who:
- Have been diagnosed with periodontal (gum) disease
- Show signs of significant plaque and tartar buildup
- Experience chronic gum inflammation or bleeding
- Have deep pockets between teeth and gums
THE DEEP CLEANING PROCESS AT SMILE HAUS
At SMILE HAUS, we ensure that the deep cleaning process is as comfortable and effective as possible:
- Examination: We start with a thorough examination to assess the extent of gum disease and plaque buildup.
- Scaling: Our experienced dental professionals carefully remove plaque and tartar from above and below the gum line.
- Root Planning: We then smooth out your tooth roots to help your gums reattach to your teeth.
- Antibacterial Treatment: If necessary, we apply antimicrobial agents to reduce bacteria and aid healing.
- Guidance and Follow-up: We provide personalized tips for at-home care and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your healing and prevent future issues.
FREQUENTLY ASKED DEEP CLEANING QUESTIONS
Deep dental cleaning is an essential treatment for managing gum health and preventing periodontal disease. Below are some frequently asked questions to help you better understand the process and its benefits.
- How long does a deep cleaning take? A deep cleaning is often completed in two visits, focusing on one side of the mouth at a time. Each session usually takes 1–2 hours, depending on the severity of gum disease.
- What can I expect after a deep cleaning? You may experience mild gum sensitivity or swelling for a few days. Following your dentist’s aftercare instructions, including brushing gently and avoiding hard foods, will help with healing.
- Is deep cleaning different from a regular cleaning? Yes. Regular cleanings focus on the surfaces of your teeth and gumline to maintain oral health. Deep cleanings go beneath the gumline to remove bacteria and plaque buildup, targeting areas a regular cleaning can’t reach.
- Can deep cleaning reverse gum disease? Deep cleaning helps stop the progression of gum disease and promotes healing but does not fully reverse advanced cases. Early detection and treatment are key to preventing more severe issues.

Went to catch up with my dental care after years of neglect… Everyone there was kind and explain each step that was done in the initial exam and cleaning. There was a concern about being afraid of dental work and wanted to know what they could do to ease that concern.
I’m looking forward to the exceptional care demonstrated so far.

I can’t say enough great things about my experience at Smile-Haus with Dr. Hotait. After doing a lot of research for my All-on-X implants, I was so impressed that this was the only place where you work directly with the doctor from start to finish. From my very first appointment, Dr. Hotait handled every part of the process himself — from the consultation to the surgery — and made me feel completely confident and comfortable the entire way.
I had my surgery done in December 2023, and even now, almost 2 years later, Dr. Hotait continues to be incredibly supportive. He’s always available for checkups, answers any questions quickly, and genuinely cares about his patients long after the procedure is done. The quality of his work and his dedication to his patients are unmatched.
If you’re considering dental implants, Smile-Haus is the place to go. You won’t find a more skilled, attentive, and trustworthy doctor than Dr. Hotait!

I had a great experience at Smile Haus! The staff was super friendly, especially Julie, she was very welcoming from the moment I walked in. The office itself is clean, modern, and has a really comfortable vibe that helped ease any nerves about being there. The hygienist took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the whole visit. I never felt rushed, and they genuinely cared about my experience. I left with my teeth feeling amazing and a big smile on my face. Definitely recommend Smile Haus to anyone looking for a dental office that’s professional, kind, and trustworthy!
