Healthy gums are essential for strong teeth, facial structure, and overall wellbeing. Along with daily brushing and flossing, professional treatments can restore gum health. At Comfort Dental Care and Orthodontics, we provide advanced periodontal therapy, using surgical and nonsurgical methods to fight gum disease and detoxify root surfaces, protecting your gums at every stage.
By reducing the amount of toxins and bacteria levels using an ultrasonic laser, we are able to help your immune system control infections associated with gum disease. Gum treatments give you the many benefits of a healthy smile and a reduced risk of heart disease.
The type of gum treatment you will undergo can be either surgical or nonsurgical. These can include advanced procedures such as scaling and root planing, which are deep cleaning procedures used to remove hardened plaque and tartar away from and under the gum line. Surgeries can include tissue and bone grafts that are used together with either your existing bone and tissue or synthetic forms to help reconstruct areas where advanced gum disease has left craters and pits, forming a breeding ground for bacteria.
The cost of gum treatment depends on the extent of the issue and the extent of treatment necessary to resolve it. In some cases, your dental insurance may cover your gum treatment. Comfort Dental Care and Orthodontics offers convenient financing options through CareCredit® and OrthoBanc® to help make dental care more affordable for you and your family.
If you are experiencing pain in and along the gum line or if you have been told that you have a buildup of tartar, plaque, calculus, or gingivitis, ultimately periodontal treatment may be the right solution.
Gingivitis is a very dangerous extension of dental pathology, and it has been shown to lead to the early onset of heart disease. Preventing heart disease may ultimately start with preventing gingivitis. If you are concerned about gingivitis, please contact us now to set up your consultation.
During your gum treatment consultation, we will examine your gums and teeth to determine an accurate treatment plan moving forward. If surgery is necessary to treat the issues, we will go over the procedure to be performed as well as each stage of the process so that you’ll know exactly what to expect.
Your teeth, mouth, and gums are important to your overall health and to your quality of life. At Comfort Dental Care and Orthodontics, you have all the experts under one roof utilizing the latest innovations in dental care technology to optimize your oral health.
