Gum health is an essential component of overall oral wellness, often overlooked until symptoms become severe. Our comprehensive gum treatment services are designed to prevent, diagnose, and treat gum diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis. Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile, and we are committed to helping you maintain optimal gum health.
Gum disease, or periodontal disease, is a bacterial infection of the gums and the structures supporting your teeth. It starts as gingivitis, where gums become red, swollen, and prone to bleeding. If left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, a more serious form that affects the bone and connective tissues, leading to tooth loss.
Symptoms of gum disease include:
Routine dental cleanings, known as prophylaxis, are crucial for preventing gum disease. Our team removes plaque and tartar buildup, the main causes of gingivitis and periodontitis. Regular cleanings are recommended every six months, but patients with gum disease may need more appointments.
For patients with early stages of gum disease, we offer scaling and root planing, also known as deep cleaning. This non-surgical treatment involves removing plaque and tartar from below the gum line and smoothing the roots of the teeth to promote healing and reattachment of the gums.
Laser technology is a minimally invasive treatment option for gum disease. Using precise laser beams, we can remove infected gum tissue and bacteria, encouraging the regeneration of healthy tissue. Laser therapy reduces discomfort and promotes faster healing compared to traditional methods.
In advanced cases of periodontitis, surgery may be required to restore the health of your gums. Our surgical treatments include:
For patients with receding gums, we offer gum grafting procedures to restore the gum line and protect tooth roots. This treatment not only improves the appearance of your smile but also prevents further gum and bone loss.
In conjunction with other treatments, we may prescribe antibiotics to control bacterial infections that contribute to gum disease. Antibiotics can be applied directly to the gums or taken orally to reduce bacteria levels.
Early detection of gum disease is key to preventing more serious complications, including tooth loss. Regular dental check-ups allow us to catch gum disease in its earliest stages and develop a personalized treatment plan. If left untreated, gum disease can lead to other health issues such as heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory problems.
