Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a serious condition that affects the health of your gums and can lead to tooth loss if left untreated. Our dental office offers effective gum disease treatment to protect your smile and restore your oral health.

The Gum Disease Treatment Process
The process of treating gum disease begins with a thorough examination, where our dentists will assess the severity of your condition and recommend a personalized treatment plan. Depending on the stage of gum disease, treatment may involve professional cleaning, scaling and root planing or surgical interventions to remove infected tissue and promote healing.
