Deep Cleaning (Scaling and Root Planing) in Kessler Dental
About the clinic
Deep cleaning, or scaling and root planing, at Kessler Dental in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, treats advanced gum disease to prevent bone loss. This non-surgical therapy is performed by a team led by Dr. Jagdeep Singh, a board-certified periodontist and surgeon. The clinic follows health protocols set by the ADA, OSHA, and CDC to help keep patients safe.
Advanced Diagnostics for Gum Health
Kessler Dental uses specific tools to identify the severity of periodontitis before starting treatment. The medical team measures periodontal pockets and uses digital X-rays to check for bone loss around the teeth. They also use OralDNA salivary testing. This test identifies specific bacteria in the mouth. This information helps the team choose the most effective way to clean the roots and control the infection.
The Deep Cleaning Process
Deep cleaning involves removing plaque and tartar from below the gumline. The procedure focuses on smoothing the root surfaces to help the gums reattach to the teeth. The clinical team includes trained dental hygienists and Dr. Jagdeep Singh. To improve results, the team may use localized antibiotics like Arestin. These are placed directly into the gum pockets during the procedure to manage harmful bacteria.
Follow-up and Maintenance
Success in treating gum disease requires regular follow-up care after the initial procedure. The clinic uses a structured periodontal maintenance schedule. Patients return every 90 days for specialized check-ups. These visits help monitor gum healing and prevent the return of plaque buildup below the gums. This routine is vital for keeping the bone and gums healthy over the long term.
Specialized Care with Dr. Jagdeep Singh
Dr. Jagdeep Singh leads the periodontal treatments at Kessler Dental. He completed his specialty training in Periodontology and Dental Implants at Temple University. He also finished a residency at York Hospital. As a board-certified specialist, he handles both non-surgical deep cleaning and surgical gum care when needed. His training focuses on saving natural teeth and managing complex gum infections.
If you have symptoms of gum disease like bleeding or receding gums, you can request a consultation at Kessler Dental through the Bookimed website.

Specialized Dental Care and Expertise
The clinical team includes five doctors who coordinate care across several dental fields. Dr. Jagdeep Singh leads the surgical and periodontal pathway. He is a Board Certified Periodontist and Surgeon. Dr. Singh completed his specialty training in periodontology and dental implants at Temple University. He also finished a one-year residency at York Hospital.
Dr. Melanie Kessler handles general and cosmetic services. She earned her degree from Temple University's School of Dentistry in 2005. The clinic also employs a clinical manager with EFDA certification and 15 years of experience. This ensures consistency during restorative procedures.
Dental Specialties
The practice covers a broad range of dental disciplines under one roof:
- Restorative Dentistry: Includes crowns, bridges, dentures, and dental implants.
- Periodontal Care: Treats gum disease through non-surgical therapies.
- Cosmetic Dentistry: Offers veneers, whitening, and full mouth reconstructions.
- Orthodontics: Provides traditional methods and Invisalign clear aligners.
- Endodontics: Performs root canal treatments for infected tooth pulp.
- Children's Dentistry: Treats patients of all ages with a focus on hygiene education.
Root canal procedures typically take one to two hours. Duration depends on tooth location and infection complexity. For moderate to advanced periodontitis, the clinic offers gum surgery and bone grafts. These procedures prevent tooth loss when supporting bone starts to deteriorate.
Modern Diagnostic and Treatment Technology
Kessler Family Dental uses a digital workflow to reduce patient visits. The CEREC system allows for one-visit dentistry. With this technology, certain crowns, fillings, and veneers are created in-office the same day. Several high-resolution tools support diagnostic accuracy:
- Cerec Omnicam for digital diagnostic models and 3D scanning
- Digital X-rays, including panoramic and periapical views
- Intraoral scanning and photography for detailed examinations
- OralDNA salivary testing to assess specific periodontal bacteria
- Digital Smile Design (DSD) for computer-aided cosmetic planning
These tools let patients see their results before physical treatment begins.
Support for International and Anxious Patients
The clinic provides anxiety-free dentistry for patients who experience fear during visits. Options include anxiolysis using mild sedatives like Valium. Sleep dentistry and nitrous oxide are also available. If a patient uses anxiolysis, two separate visits are required. The first covers health history, while the second involves the procedure.
International patients receive a guided experience focused on individualized care. The clinic accommodates English and Spanish speakers. To enhance comfort, the practice offers:
- Noise-canceling headphones with music
- Pillows and blankets
- Lip balm
New patients can access secure online forms to streamline their arrival process.
