I had that recommended but haven't done yet.

Will discuss with my dentist, it seems the best way forward hopefully he can help.

If you need scaling get it done asap. If your dentist is recommending it with cleanings 4x per year your gum recession is likely bad. A scaling will get the gunk that’s accumulating underneath the gum line and will improve your mouth hygiene. It will also qualify you for four free cleanings per year

Not necessarily true. Some plans only cover 2, the other 2 will need to be paid out of pocket. Doesn’t automatically qualify you. Check with your insurance and dental office.

As others have said on this post you don’t get “cleanings” after periodontal work you get perio maintenance which is covered every three months
