Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a serious infection that affects the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. If left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss and other health complications. Our gum disease treatment options, including deep cleaning teeth, scaling and root planing, and antibiotic therapy, help restore gum health and prevent further damage.
Reduces gum inflammation and bleeding
Deep cleaning teeth removes plaque and bacteria
Stops gum infection before it worsens
Treats receding gums and prevents further damage
Prevents tooth loss by strengthening gum support
Improves overall oral and systemic health
Periodontal Evaluation
Our dentist will examine your gums, measure pocket depth around the teeth, and check for signs of gingivitis or advanced periodontal disease.
Deep Cleaning (Scaling and Root Planing)
If gum disease is present, we perform scaling and root planing, a deep cleaning procedure that removes plaque and tartar from below the gumline and smooths tooth roots to encourage healing.
Antibiotic Therapy (If Needed)
For severe cases, we may apply antibiotic treatment to eliminate infection-causing bacteria and promote gum tissue regeneration.
Ongoing Maintenance & Prevention
Regular dental visits and proper oral hygiene help prevent gum infection from returning. We’ll provide personalized recommendations to keep your gums healthy.
Symptoms include bleeding gums, swelling, bad breath, and gum recession. Early detection is key!
Gingivitis treatment can reverse early-stage gum disease, but advanced periodontal disease requires ongoing management.
Scaling and root planing may cause mild discomfort, but we use local anesthesia or sedation to keep you comfortable.
While gums don’t regenerate naturally, treatments like gum grafts and proper oral care can prevent further recession.
