Periodontal care covers a variety of treatments that address gum disease, protect supporting bone, improve gum health, and prepare you for future restorative care. We recommend treatments based on your diagnosis, symptoms, and long-term oral health goals.

Taking care of your gum and bone health can protect your entire well-being. Keeping bacteria out of your gumline can safeguard your body against it. Untreated gum disease can increase your risk of serious health issues, such as heart disease, stroke, and other systemic concerns.

You can visit us for:

Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy – Often the first step in treating gum disease, this treatment removes harmful bacteria and buildup beneath the gumline. We will reduce inflammation and encourage your gums to heal.
Pocket Reduction Surgery – When deep periodontal pockets remain after non-surgical treatment, pocket reduction surgery decrease the space where bacteria can collect. It allows the gums to fit more securely around the teeth.
Periodontal Laser Therapy – Laser-assisted treatment can target infected tissue and bacteria while promoting healing. This minimally invasive approach may be combined with other treatments for thorough results.
Refractory or Recurrent Periodontitis Treatment – Some forms of gum disease continue to progress or return despite previous care. We’ll develop an effective management plan to prevent future infections.
Soft Tissue Augmentation – Soft tissue procedures can improve the appearance of gum tissue. It will help you achieve a healthier and more balanced smile.
Crown Lengthening – Crown lengthening reshapes gum and supporting tissue to expose more of your tooth structure. It’s often recommended in preparation for restorative or cosmetic improvements.

During your consultation, our team will perform a comprehensive periodontal exam. We will discuss which treatment options suit your needs and what’s involved. If you feel nervous, ask about our sedation options to put your mind at ease.

Healthy gums play an essential role in protecting your smile and helping your teeth remain stable. It also protects your long-term oral health and overall well-being. Periodontal care can address concerns ranging from early-stage gum inflammation to more advanced conditions.

How do I know if I need periodontal treatment? + –

You may need periodontal treatment if you experience symptoms such as bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, gum recession, swollen or tender gums, loose teeth, or changes in the way your teeth fit together when you bite. In some cases, gum disease develops gradually. You may not notice discomfort in its early stages. Regular exams help us identify problems before they become more serious.

Can a periodontist help save my natural teeth? + –

Yes, a periodontist can often help save your teeth with gum disease treatment. If we diagnose periodontal disease, treatment can stop or slow its progression. It will preserve the structures that keep teeth stable. Your treatment may involve non-surgical therapy, advanced periodontal procedures, or ongoing maintenance care. Our recommendation depends on the severity of the condition.

Is periodontal treatment painful? + –

No, your periodontal treatment is as comfortable as possible. You will experience little to no discomfort during care. Modern techniques, advanced technology, and personalized treatment planning make periodontal procedures more relaxing. We typically use local anesthesia to minimize discomfort during treatment. We also offer laughing gas, oral sedation, and IV sedation to help you feel at ease.

What happens if gum disease is left untreated? + –

If gum disease is left untreated, it can damage your gums, supporting bone, and surrounding structures. Eventually, it can lead to tooth or bone loss. As the condition progresses, pockets may develop between the teeth and gums, allowing harmful bacteria to accumulate and cause further damage. Advanced periodontal disease can affect both the appearance and function of your smile. Our personalized treatment options will help you manage gum disease, reduce infection, protect healthy tissue, and prevent future complications.
