Gum Disease Treatment

Advanced Gum Treatment

Gum disease is the swelling or soreness of the gum tissue surrounding your teeth. It is generally caused by bacteria build up known as plaque. This sticky, colorless film forms on your teeth and produce toxins which irritate your gums.

While the signs of gum disease are not always easily seen and may be painless, the earlier it is detected, the easier it is to treat. Because of these, we routinely recommend scheduling a cleaning every 6 months.

Gum Disease Treatment Includes:

Deep Cleaning (Scaling & Root Planing)

Periodontitis Treatment

As plaque spreads to your tooth roots and causes bone loss, damage occurs to the supporting structures holding your teeth in place. A typical sign of periodontitis is your gums pulling away from your teeth over time as well as an increase in tarter build-up.

Gingivitis Treatment

This is the first sign of gum disease.  You may notice a tender feeling and see some redness and bleeding when you brush and floss.  It is important to have your teeth cleaned before this condition continues and results in irreversible bone loss.
