Information About Periodontal Dentistry Services

A crown lengthening procedure helps to correct a "gummy" smile by removing excess, overgrown gum tissue for a more sculpted, even gumline.

Gum graft surgery may be performed to repair your gums, cover your teeth, and create a more aesthetically appealing smile by adding gum tissue.

Periodontal/gum surgery may be performed for several reasons including to treat advanced stages of gum disease or to cosmetically enhance your smile.

Gingivitis is the first stage of periodontal (gum) disease, and it can lead to a more severe and advanced gum infection if left untreated.

Gum contouring can be performed to cosmetically enhance your smile by reshaping your gumline or to help prevent bacteria from developing in the gums.

Scaling and root planing is a treatment for the earliest stage of gum disease (gingivitis) by deep cleaning the gum pockets to prevent buildup.
