What Are the Risks of Dental Debridement?
In general, dental debridement is not risky. It’s safer than a routine cleaning appointment for those who have lots of buildups, and it’s been a while since they have received dental care. You may be at risk for infection following the procedure, so your dentist may prescribe an antibiotic or special mouthwash to use for a few days or weeks. Not long ago, I went to the dentist for a diy tooth filling, and I did this procedure as well. Everything went very well, without complications. Following dental scaling and root planning, contact your dentist immediately if you experience worsening pain.
