Enjoy Healthy Gums Again With Our Treatment

Our approach to treating gum disease uses proven techniques to restore your gum health. We’ll create a customized treatment plan based on the severity of your condition and your specific needs. Many patients achieve excellent results through a combination of treatments, helping them avoid more invasive surgical procedures.

Our nonsurgical gum disease treatments include:

  • Scaling and Root Planing – This deep-cleaning procedure removes harmful bacteria, plaque, and tartar from both above and below your gumline. The treatment finishes by smoothing your tooth roots to prevent future bacterial attachment and promote healing.
  • Topical Antibiotics – Our team carefully places these medications directly into infected gum pockets. The antibiotics provide targeted treatment that continues working for several days to eliminate harmful bacteria and speed up healing.
  • Antibacterial Irrigation – This treatment uses specialized solutions to flush out bacteria and debris from deep within your gum pockets. The irrigation helps to disinfect areas that regular cleaning cannot reach.

We often combine these treatments for the most effective results, monitoring your progress and adjusting your care plan as needed. Our team will also teach you specific home care techniques and recommend products to help maintain your gum health between visits.

Your comfort is our priority throughout treatment, and we use local anesthetic when needed to ensure a pain-free experience. Let us help you restore your gum health and protect your smile for years to come.

Common Questions About Nonsurgical Gum Disease Treatment
What is nonsurgical gum disease treatment?

Gum disease treatment is designed to get rid of plaque, tartar, and bacteria from around and below your gumline. We offer several types of gum disease treatment, including scaling and root planing, antibiotics, and antibacterial irrigation. Your dentist will help decide on the right type of treatment based on your needs.

What causes gum disease?

Gum disease, also called periodontal disease, is an infection caused by bacteria in your mouth. Bacteria form a clear, sticky film called plaque that builds up around your gumline, leading to inflamed and infected gums. Left untreated, the infection causes your gums to separate from teeth, creating pockets where more bacteria accumulate. In advanced stages of gum disease, the infection spreads from your gums to the bone that supports your teeth. Your teeth will loosen and potentially fall out.

Can you cure gum disease at home?

No, you can’t cure gum disease at home, not even in its early stages. Gum disease is caused when bacteria-filled plaque and tartar build up in the area between your teeth and gums. This area can’t be reached with a toothbrush or floss. Using special equipment, your dental team removes all the bacteria from this area and then smooths your tooth roots to make it difficult for more bacteria to accumulate.
