Root Debridement – Targeted Care for Gum Disease
When gum disease progresses beyond surface cleaning, more intensive treatment is required. At Imperial Dental Care, our root debridement service (often called deep-cleaning) focuses on cleaning beneath the gum line to halt or reverse periodontal damage.
What’s involved:
- Local anaesthetic is used to ensure comfort throughout the process.
- Your hygienist or dentist cleans deep plaque and tartar deposits from around and beneath the gums, smoothing root surfaces to discourage bacterial adhesion.
- We’ll monitor healing and may recommend follow-up hygiene visits and maintenance plans to protect your gums long-term.
Why you might need it:
If you’ve noticed persistent gum redness, bleeding, bad breath or loose teeth, these may be signs of advanced gum disease. Treating early prevents further damage and tooth loss.
Our focus:
Quality, comfort and long-term maintenance. We’ll clearly explain your condition, help you choose suitable treatments and support you with effective after-care.

The hygiene/airflow appointment with Mr Vytautas Berenis is absolutely excellent, professional and outstanding. I would highly recommend him as he works very gently , no pain and the cleaning of the teeth is exceptional. The front desk staff is very polite, nice and helpful.

I had a filling fall out as I was on holiday and being the scaredy cat that I am I waited until I was back in the UK to get it fixed – it was my first time going to Imperial Dental Care as they were the only dentist I could find that had any next day emergency openings; Dr Natasha was extremely professional and gentle and it might’ve been my very first pleasant experience at a dentist 10/10 all around.
