Periodontal Therapy
A radiant smile begins with healthy gums. During our comprehensive dental exams, we meticulously review your periodontal health and evaluate your risk for gum disease, a leading culprit of adult tooth loss. Plaque, that sticky, invisible film on your teeth, can harbor bacteria. If not effectively removed, it turns into tartar, potentially leading to swollen, bleeding gums, and receding gum lines. Our expert team employs root planing and scaling to meticulously eliminate plaque and tartar along the gum line. For those with exposed root surfaces, our GLUMA desensitizer alleviates unwanted cold or touch sensitivity. In cases of moderate to severe gum disease, Arestin is prescribed to enhance gum pocket depth and reestablish a healthy bacterial balance in your mouth. We'll customize a home care regimen tailored specifically to your needs, ensuring your smile remains both brilliant and healthy.
