Gum Health

Periodontal
Care.

Periodontal care treats gum disease — an infection of the tissue and bone supporting your teeth — at whatever stage it's caught, from early gingivitis to more advanced periodontitis that threatens tooth stability.

What It Is

Protecting the foundation, not just the teeth.

Gum disease begins as gingivitis — inflammation caused by plaque buildup, usually reversible with a good cleaning and improved home care. Left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, where the infection begins to break down the bone and ligament that hold your teeth in place — damage that, past a certain point, isn't fully reversible.

Treatment is tailored to the stage: early cases often respond to deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) alone, while more advanced cases may need additional periodontal procedures to control the infection and stabilize what support remains, followed by a structured maintenance schedule.

Why You May Need This

Signs it's time
to get it checked.

Gums that bleed regularly, not just occasionallyFrequent bleeding, even with light brushing, is one of the earliest warning signs of gum disease.
Gums that are receding or teeth that look longerGum recession is a sign that supporting tissue is being lost, often due to periodontal disease.
Teeth that feel loose or have shiftedLooseness or shifting can indicate bone loss around the tooth roots from advanced gum disease.
Persistent bad breath that doesn't improve with brushingChronic bad breath is frequently linked to bacteria associated with periodontal infection.
Pus or tenderness around the gumlineThese are signs of active infection that need prompt periodontal evaluation and treatment.

The Process

What to expect,
step by step.

1

Periodontal Assessment

Gum pocket depths, bleeding points, and bone levels (via X-ray) are measured to determine disease stage.

2

Deep Cleaning (Scaling & Root Planing)

Plaque and tartar are removed from below the gumline, and root surfaces are smoothed to help gums reattach.

3

Infection Control

Additional treatment is provided as needed to bring active infection under control.

4

Re-Evaluation

Gum health is reassessed after initial treatment to confirm the infection is responding well.

5

Maintenance Program

A structured, more frequent cleaning schedule helps keep gum disease from returning long-term.

Common Questions

Answers before
you ask.

Can gum disease be fully reversed?

Early gingivitis is generally fully reversible; more advanced periodontitis can be controlled and stabilized, though some bone loss may not be reversible.

Is gum treatment painful?

Deep cleaning is typically done with local anesthesia for comfort where needed; most patients tolerate it well.

How often will I need maintenance visits?

Often every 3–4 months instead of the standard 6, depending on how your gums respond to initial treatment.
