More than just
a cleaning.

Periodontal (gum) disease is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults — and it's almost always preventable when caught early. Bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, or gum recession can all be signs that your gums need more than a routine cleaning.

We offer the full range of periodontal therapy, from non-surgical deep cleanings to ongoing maintenance care for patients with a history of gum disease.

  • Periodontal evaluation & charting
  • Scaling & root planing (deep cleaning)
  • Localized antibiotic therapy
  • Periodontal maintenance program
  • Gum disease prevention education

Common Questions

asked.

Bleeding when you brush or floss, persistent bad breath, gum recession, or loose teeth are warning signs. We screen for it at every visit.
We numb the area for your comfort. Most patients report only mild soreness afterward.
Early-stage gum disease (gingivitis) is fully reversible with proper care. Advanced periodontitis can be managed but not fully reversed.
