Scaling & Root Planing

As a two-part process designed to treat gum disease, scaling and root planing involves removing plaque and tartar from above and below the gumline as well as smoothing tooth roots to ensure gums reattach to teeth.

With PerioView, we can see deep within the gum pockets where bacteria and calculus reside, all without having to resort to surgical methods. We’re able to be more thorough and precise during scaling so that the source of the infection is completely removed the first time.

Laser Periodontal Treatment

If moderate or severe gum disease is detected, our team can use LANAP (“Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure”) to eliminate harmful bacteria. It’s better suited for more advanced cases and is more conservative compared to traditional methods, all while being extremely precise.

Antibiotic Treatment

With antibiotic therapy, we can place the medication into gum pockets so that it disperses over time to target harmful particles in hard-to-reach areas and allow for proper healing.
