Protecting the Foundation of Your Smile

Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy mouth. Gum treatment addresses gingivitis and periodontal disease, ranging from professional deep cleaning to more advanced periodontal therapy.

Left untreated, gum disease can lead to tooth loss and has been linked to broader health issues — early treatment makes a significant difference.

Signs of Gum Disease

  • Red, swollen, or tender gums
  • Bleeding while brushing or flossing
  • Persistent bad breath
  • Gums pulling away from teeth
  • Loose or shifting teeth

Benefits of Gum Treatment

  • Stops gum disease progression
  • Reduces bleeding, swelling, and discomfort
  • Protects against tooth loss
  • Supports overall health, not just oral health

The Gum Treatment Process

  1. 1

    Periodontal Assessment

    Gum pockets are measured to assess disease severity.

  2. 2

    Scaling & Root Planing

    Deep cleaning removes plaque and tartar below the gumline.

  3. 3

    Treatment

    Additional therapy is provided for more advanced cases as needed.

  4. 4

    Maintenance Plan

    A follow-up schedule helps keep gum disease from returning.

Aftercare

Some tenderness for a few days after deep cleaning is normal and improves quickly with good home care.

  • Use a soft-bristled toothbrush during recovery
  • Follow any prescribed rinses or medication as directed
