Periodontal (Gum) Care

Periodontal (Gum) Care

Scaling and root planing, and gum grafting.

Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile.

  • Scaling and root planing: a deep cleaning below the gumline to treat gum disease (periodontitis) and remove bacterial toxins.
  • Gum grafting: procedures to treat receding gums and protect exposed tooth roots.

What to expect

  • A conversation about your concerns and health history
  • An examination, with images or scans when needed
  • Your options and costs explained before any treatment

Every treatment starts with a consultation and exam. Your dentist will explain your options and the cost before any work begins.
