Periodontal Treatment

Periodontal treatment focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease, which is a major cause of tooth loss in adults. Gum disease, or periodontitis, occurs when the gums become infected and inflamed, leading to the destruction of the supporting structures of the teeth, including the bone. If left untreated, gum disease can progress and result in significant damage to your oral health, as well as increase your risk for other health issues such as heart disease and diabetes. Early detection and treatment are crucial in managing gum disease and preserving the health of your teeth and gums.

Our periodontal treatment services include scaling and root planing, which are deep cleaning procedures that remove plaque and tartar from below the gum line and smooth the root surfaces to prevent bacteria from reattaching. In more advanced cases, surgical treatments may be necessary to restore the health of the gums and supporting bone. We also provide maintenance care to help you manage your gum health over the long term, including regular cleanings and check-ups. By addressing gum disease early and effectively, we can help you maintain a healthy and stable foundation for your teeth, ensuring that your smile remains strong and vibrant.
