Effective Treatment for Infected Gums
If your gums are swollen, painful, or bleeding frequently, you may be experiencing gum infection (periodontitis). Our infected gum therapy is designed to effectively treat this condition by removing harmful bacteria, preventing further gum damage, and restoring your overall oral health. Timely intervention can prevent severe complications, including tooth loss.
Book OnlineWhat to Expect During and After Treatment
During infected gum therapy, we use local anesthesia to ensure a comfortable experience. After the procedure, it’s common to experience mild soreness or sensitivity, which usually subsides within a few days. Maintaining good oral hygiene practices, including regular brushing, flossing, and scheduled professional cleanings, will help prevent future infections and promote long-lasting oral health.
How Our Infected Gum Therapy Works
We provide a thorough deep cleaning, known as scaling and root planing, to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria below the gumline. This procedure smooths the roots, helping your gums reattach to your teeth, reducing inflammation, and allowing for optimal healing.
