Gum Treatment
Periodontal Disease
Illustrations above display severe periodontal disease with large
amounts of bone loss, large amounts bleeding from gums, and loosening of teeth.
Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum
disease, is the most common disease in adults. Left
untreated, periodontal disease can lead to tooth loss
and affect your overall health. Periodontal disease
has been shown to increase the risk of heart disease,
stroke, and pregnancy complications.
We focus on eliminating:
- Tartar and Plaque Below the Gum Line
- Detoxifying Root Surfaces Where the Disease Occurs
Our goals for soft tissue management include:
- Gums that Do Not Bleed
- Reattachment of Gum Tissue to Tooth Surface
- Reducing Bacteria in Pockets
- Controlling Periodontal Disease
