Deep Cleaning Cost by State (2026)

A deep cleaning in the United States typically costs $338 if you pay cash, from about $264 in Arkansas to $595 in Washington, DC. A negotiated price usually lands between $140 and $312 depending on the state. Every state is in the table below.

What this covers

A deep cleaning, or scaling and root planing (CDT code D4341), treats gum disease by cleaning below the gum line. It is priced per quadrant, a quarter of the mouth, and the figures here are for one quadrant. Most people who need it need two to four quadrants, so multiply accordingly. It is not the routine cleaning; that is on the teeth cleaning page.

A negotiated price usually lands between $140 and $312 depending on the state.

Clear Care has no fixed member rate for this procedure. When you book through the app, your concierge negotiates the price with the practice on your behalf and you see it in a treatment plan before anything happens. The negotiated range in the table is where negotiated prices in that market usually land; it is a guide, not a quote.

Why the range is so wide

• How many quadrants. One to four, each billed separately.
• How deep. More advanced gum disease takes more visits and sometimes a specialist.
• Anaesthetic. Often needed, sometimes billed on top.
• Where you live. Local overhead sets the base price.

What a Clear Care member pays

A deep cleaning is not one of the included visits. It is a negotiated procedure: your concierge agrees the price with the practice before treatment, and you pay the practice that price. Because it is billed per quadrant, ask the practice to quote the whole course, not one visit.

How to get a real number for your tooth

1. Check the price in the app. The price check shows the typical range for your ZIP code, with and without the membership.
2. Request the visit. Your concierge calls the practice, including the dentist you already see, and negotiates the price.
3. Read the treatment plan. The negotiated price arrives in the app before treatment. Accept it or decline it; nothing is charged until you say yes.

Where these numbers come from

These are estimates, not quotes. They come from dental fee data we track for each state's largest metro area , last updated August 2026. Your own dentist's price, and the price your concierge agrees, will differ.
