Understanding Periodontal Disease

Periodontal disease is a common but serious condition that affects the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. It begins with inflammation caused by plaque buildup and can progress to gum recession, bone loss, and tooth loss if left untreated. Early detection and treatment are vital to prevent complications and maintain a healthy mouth.

Effective Periodontal Therapy & Deep Cleaning

If you show signs of gum disease, such as swelling, bleeding, or tenderness, our skilled dental team provides periodontal therapy customized to your needs. Our deep cleaning procedures, including scaling and root planing, remove plaque and tartar from below the gumline and smooth the tooth roots to encourage healing and reattachment of gum tissue.


This non-surgical treatment is often the first step in controlling gum disease and preventing its progression. We use gentle techniques and advanced tools to maximize comfort during your visit.

Ongoing Periodontal Maintenance

After initial therapy, maintaining healthy gums requires regular periodontal maintenance cleanings. These professional cleanings focus specifically on areas affected by gum disease to prevent recurrence and manage your gum health long-term. Our team will work with you to establish a personalized maintenance schedule based on your individual risk factors and oral health status.
