Periodontal Therapy

Periodontal therapy refers to a range of treatments that are designed to address gum disease and other issues affecting the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. Advanced treatments such as Arestin® Antibiotic Therapy, Laser Bacterial Decontamination, and gum disease testing can help to improve the health of your gums and prevent tooth loss.

What is Periodontal Therapy?

Periodontal therapy is a set of treatments that are designed to treat gum disease and other issues affecting the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a common condition that can cause redness, swelling, and bleeding of the gums, as well as gum recession and tooth loss.

Arestin® Antibiotic Therapy

Arestin® Antibiotic Therapy is a powerful treatment for gum disease that involves the use of a special antibiotic powder that is placed directly into the gum pockets. The powder slowly dissolves over time, releasing medication that can kill the bacteria that cause gum disease and help to reduce inflammation.

Laser Bacterial Decontamination

Laser Bacterial Decontamination is a non-surgical treatment that uses a special dental laser to remove bacteria from the gums and teeth. The laser can kill bacteria without harming healthy tissue, making it an effective and safe way to treat gum disease.

Gum Disease Testing

Gum disease testing involves a series of tests that are used to evaluate the health of your gums and detect signs of gum disease. These tests can include a visual exam, X-rays, and measurements of the gum pockets.

Benefits of Periodontal Therapy

Periodontal therapy can provide a wide range of benefits for patients with gum disease, including:

  • Reduced inflammation and redness of the gums
  • Improved oral hygiene and oral health
  • Decreased risk of tooth loss
  • Improved overall health and wellbeing

If you are experiencing gum disease or other issues affecting the health of your gums and teeth, periodontal therapy can help. Advanced treatments such as Arestin® Antibiotic Therapy, Laser Bacterial Decontamination, and gum disease testing can provide quick relief and improve the health of your gums and teeth over time.
