Gum Disease
We understand the serious implications of gum disease and the importance of early detection and treatment. Our dedicated team of dental professionals provides comprehensive gum disease treatment to help our patients achieve optimal oral health and maintain beautiful smiles.
Understanding Gum Disease
Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a bacterial infection that affects the tissues surrounding the teeth. It can range from mild inflammation (gingivitis) to more severe forms that can lead to tooth loss if left untreated. Common symptoms of gum disease include red, swollen, or bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, receding gums, and loose teeth.
Our Gum Disease Services
- Periodontal Evaluation:
Our experienced dentists will thoroughly examine your gums to assess their health and detect any signs of gum disease. We use advanced diagnostic tools to accurately evaluate the condition of your gums and determine the most appropriate treatment plan.
- Scaling and Root Planing:
For patients with mild to moderate gum disease, we offer scaling and root planing (deep cleaning) to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria below the gumline. This non-surgical procedure helps eliminate infection and promote gum tissue healing.
- Pocket Reduction Surgery:
In cases of advanced gum disease where deep pockets have formed between the gums and teeth, surgical intervention may be necessary to reduce pocket depths and restore gum health. Our skilled periodontist performs pocket reduction surgery with precision and care to improve the overall health of your gums and prevent further damage to the supporting structures of your teeth.
- Maintenance Therapy:
After completing gum disease treatment, ongoing maintenance therapy is essential to prevent recurrence and maintain the health of your gums. Our team will provide personalized recommendations for at-home oral care and regular professional cleanings to keep your gums healthy and your smile bright.
