Gum Disease Treatment
Periodontal Care
About This Service
Periodontal disease affects the gums, bone, and supporting structures around the teeth. Treatment focuses on controlling infection, reducing inflammation, and protecting the tissues that keep teeth stable. This page should clearly explain both active treatment and the maintenance phase required to keep periodontal disease under control long-term.
Includes both treatment and maintenance
This page should explicitly explain that gum disease care often includes scaling and root planing first, followed by periodontal maintenance at intervals based on clinical needs.
The Process
Periodontal Evaluation
We assess inflammation, pocketing, bone support, and overall gum stability.
Active Therapy
When indicated, scaling and root planing is used to remove bacterial buildup below the gumline.
Reevaluation
We review healing and determine whether additional therapy or monitoring is needed.
Periodontal Maintenance
Ongoing maintenance visits help control recurrence and protect long-term periodontal health.
