PERIODONTAL TREATMENT

Periodontal  Treatment

Gum Disease Treatment Services in Gainesville, FL

Sensitive, swollen, bleeding, and red gums are all signs of gingivitis, the earliest stage of gum (periodontal) disease. Bad breath, loose teeth, and a receding gumline also indicate you may be developing periodontal disease. The earlier you seek help, the more effective the treatment.  
Some cases of gum disease may require scaling and root planing, a process by which plaque and tartar are removed over the course of several appointments. After these are removed, the surface of teeth are planed to make sure the gums can heal. 

More severe cases of periodontal disease could result in a need for gum graft surgery to repair gum recession with the use of grafts. Gum tissue is removed from another source and placed in the receding areas to prevent bone loss.
