Save Your Teeth With Great Gum Care

Gum disease is not something you should ignore. It is a leading cause of tooth loss in the United States. Periodontal infections have also been linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, heart attacks, and other health issues.

By coming to our office for general dentistry, you can feel good about the quality of your care. That includes careful inspection of your gums and solutions if they are infected. Many times you can fix your problems with scaling and root planing. During this deep cleaning procedure, we will:

  • Offer you sedation if you’re anxious about your treatment
  • Gently remove built-up plaque, tartar, and bacteria around and below the gumline
  • Make the surface of your tooth roots smooth, which makes it harder for harmful bacteria to stick
  • Help your gums reattach to the roots of your teeth

After your treatment, we can advise you on the next steps to recover faster and to prevent a recurring infection. It’s worth noting that patients who have chronic periodontal problems can benefit from more frequent cleanings and exams.
