Periodontal Treatment & Gum Care

Our comprehensive periodontal assessments measure gum pocket depths, check for bone loss, and evaluate your overall gum health. Based on the findings, we create a personalized treatment plan that may include deep cleaning, antibiotic therapy, and ongoing maintenance visits to keep gum disease under control.

Scaling & Root Planing

This deep cleaning procedure removes plaque and tartar (calculus) from below the gum line and smooths rough spots on tooth roots where bacteria collect. By eliminating these bacterial deposits, scaling and root planing allows your gums to heal and reattach to your teeth, reducing pocket depths.

Halitosis & Bad Breath Care

Chronic bad breath can be embarrassing and is often a sign of an underlying dental issue. We identify the root cause, whether it's bacteria buildup, gum disease, dry mouth, or other factors, and provide targeted treatment to eliminate bad breath at its source rather than just masking it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the first signs of gum disease?+
Early gum disease (gingivitis) often shows as red, swollen gums that bleed when you brush or floss. You may also notice persistent bad breath, receding gums, or teeth that feel slightly loose. Early detection and treatment can completely reverse gingivitis before it progresses to periodontitis.
Can gum disease be reversed?+
Gingivitis (early-stage gum disease) is fully reversible with professional cleaning and improved home care. Advanced periodontitis cannot be fully reversed, but it can be effectively managed and prevented from worsening with deep cleaning, ongoing maintenance, and in some cases, surgical treatment.
What causes chronic bad breath?+
Chronic bad breath (halitosis) is most often caused by bacteria buildup on the tongue, gum disease, or untreated tooth decay. Less common causes include dry mouth, sinus conditions, and systemic health issues. A thorough dental exam can identify and address the underlying cause.
