It is performed to stop gum recession. Similar to tartar removal, but curettage is the deep cleaning of inflammation and tartar that extends to the tooth roots. It causes gaps (pockets) at the point where the gum and tooth roots meet. If these gaps are properly cared for, tooth loss can be prevented and gum health can be improved. It is performed under local (oral) anesthesia, and the patient does not feel any pain during the procedure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After an oral examination, the patient&#039;s gum health and necessary treatments may vary.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-10255 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.incidis.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/kuretaj-1-1-1024x512.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.incidis.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/kuretaj-1-1-1024x512.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.incidis.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/kuretaj-1-1-768x384.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.incidis.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/kuretaj-1-1-640x320.webp 640w, https:\/\/www.incidis.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/kuretaj-1-1-400x200.webp 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/b><\/h2>\n<h2><b>Types of Curettage:<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>* Subgingival curettage<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is known as deep cleaning.
