PERIODONTAL THERAPY

Supporting healthy gums and long-term oral health

What is periodontal therapy?

Periodontal therapy focuses on treating gum disease and inflammation below the gumline. It helps remove bacteria and buildup that can lead to gum recession, bone loss, and tooth loss if left untreated.

This type of treatment goes beyond a standard cleaning and is designed to restore gum health and prevent further damage.

Who is periodontal therapy for?

Periodontal therapy may be recommended if you:
Have bleeding, swollen, or tender gums
Have been diagnosed with gingivitis or periodontal disease
Are experiencing gum recession or bone loss
Have persistent bad breath despite good home care
Want to protect your teeth and oral health long term


Our team will evaluate your gum health and explain what we’re seeing so you feel confident in the plan moving forward.
