How Periodontics Supports Your Oral Health
We remove bacteria beneath the gumline to reduce redness, swelling, and bleeding. Prompt care prevents further complications.
Untreated gum disease leads to bone and tooth loss. Our Periodontal Treatments help preserve your smile’s natural structure.
Scaling and root planing go below the surface. These cleanings remove hardened plaque that brushing alone can’t reach.
Regular Periodontal Maintenance helps prevent recurrence. Ongoing cleanings every three months keep harmful bacteria in check.
For advanced cases, we offer Periodontal Surgery to restore gum and bone. This enhances oral health and strengthens your smile foundation.
