Services Non-surgical Periodontal Therapy

Gum disease affects more than 98% of Americans and is the number one cause of tooth loss. Several protocols are available depending on the type of gum disease.

Type I - Gingivitis - This gum condition is treated by removing the build up of calculus (tarter), plaque and polishing the teeth. Removing plaque and tarter results in the return of health to the gums. Requires at least two visits with our hygienists, and includes home care instructions

Types II, III, & IV - Periodontitis (early,
moderate, advanced) - Gum disease can aggressively destroy the underlying bone and attachment mechanisms of the teeth. Treatment consists of removal of the toxic bacterial products from affected root surfaces
beneath the gums. Called scaling and root planing, this is accomplished with
multiple visits, using local anesthesia. When indicated, antibacterial medication is applied. A follow-up visit four to six weeks following treatment measures progress.

Maintenance Procedures - Gum
disease frequently recurs, due to the rapid return of bacterial growth in the
mouth. To keep it under control it is necessary to return regularly to the
hygienist for removal of this bacterial growth. Following scaling and root
planing, these visits are necessary every three months for at least one year.
