Gum Disease Treatment
Are swollen and tender gums making it difficult to enjoy your favorite foods?
Are you experiencing bleeding gums and seeking relief from the discomfort it causes?
Restore Your Gum Health and Protect Your Smile
Gum disease—also known as periodontal disease—is a common oral health issue that can have serious consequences if left untreated. Caused by bacterial plaque buildup along the gumline, gum disease can lead to gum inflammation, recession, tooth loss, and even contribute to systemic health problems like heart disease and diabetes.
At Frenchs Forest Dental, we offer a full range of professional gum disease treatments to restore your gum health and protect your smile. Led by Dr. Ali Shakoori, our experienced team provides tailored care, using the latest techniques and technology to achieve the best possible outcomes for every patient.
What Is Gum Disease Treatment?
Gum disease treatment includes a combination of professional cleanings, deep cleaning procedures, medications, and advanced surgical options, all designed to remove infection, stop disease progression, and restore the health of your gums and supporting bone.
Depending on the severity of the disease, your treatment plan may include:
- Professional cleaningsto remove plaque and tartar above and below the gumline
- Scaling and root planing(deep cleaning) to smooth root surfaces and remove bacteria
- Medications, such as antimicrobial rinses, gels, or oral antibiotics
- Laser therapyto gently remove infected tissue and promote healing
- Surgical treatments, including flap surgery, bone grafts, and tissue grafts for advanced cases
- Ongoing maintenance plansto help prevent future recurrence of gum disease
What Can Gum Disease Treatment Fix?
Gum disease treatment addresses a wide range of problems affecting both your oral and overall health. It reduces gum inflammation and bleeding, stops gum recession from worsening, stabilises loose teeth, eliminates persistent bad breath, and helps prevent tooth decay and bone loss around your teeth. In severe cases, timely treatment can even help avoid tooth extractions and the need for more extensive restorative procedures.
By restoring gum health, treatment not only protects your teeth but also supports your overall wellness—since untreated gum disease has been linked to serious health issues such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
