In Vivo Scaling and Root Planing Forces in Molars

Journal of Periodontology, 1993
The purpose of the present study was to assess in vivo scaling and root planing forces in molars of Periodontitis patients. Ten dentists and 10 dental hygienists scaled and root planed the mesial and distal aspect of one first molar, using Gracey curets 11/ 12 and 13/14.

The Impact of Research on Scaling and Root Planing

Journal of Periodontology, 1986
The research expanding our knowledge of the periodontally involved root surface and its treatment is reviewed. To improve communication in the clinic and classroom, definitions are suggested for the terms “scaling” and “root planing.” The objectives and limitations of root planing procedures are discussed.

Bacteremia Following Subgingival Irrigation and Scaling and Root Planing

Journal of Periodontology, 1991
The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of bacteremia after a single professional subgingival irrigation with a 0.12% Chlorhexidine gluconate mouthrinse (CHX) as well as after a subsequent scaling and root planing (S/RP) during the same visit.

Clinical effects of scaling and root planing on untreated teeth

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, 2005
AbstractObjective: The aim of this report is to examine whether scaling and root planing (SRP) in one area of the mouth may affect periodontal improvement in untreated areas in the same patient, possibly through systemic effects of treatment.Material and Methods: Twenty patients diagnosed with generalized aggressive periodontitis were randomized into

Effectiveness of a Sanguinarine Regimen After Scaling and Root Planing

Journal of Periodontology, 1999
Background: A variety of chemical agents have been evaluated relative to their abilities to inhibit dental plaque and to improve gingival health. Chlorhexidine gluconate is the best known and most widely used member of these agents, but its long‐term use is compromised by different side effects, especially extrinsic tooth and tongue staining.

Time to Shift: From Scaling and Root Planing to Root Surface Debridement

Primary Dental Journal, 2014
Non-surgical periodontal treatment has traditionally been based on the notion that bacterial plaque (dental biofilm) penetrates and infects dental cementum. Removal of this infected cementum via scaling and root planing (SRP) was considered essential for re-establishing periodontal health. In the 1980s the concept of SRP was questioned because several
