Periodontal Therapy

Periodontal Therapy is that branch of dentistry that deals with the care and treatment of the supporting structures of the teeth. By this we mean the gingival (gum) tissues and the bone surrounding the teeth. This office uses a collaborative approach to providing periodontal care using the dentist, dental hygienist, and patient.

Our most common Periodontal Procedures are:

Prophylaxis - cleaning to remove plaque, stain, and calculus (tartar) from the coronal portions of the teeth.

Scaling and Root Planing - hygiene therapy to remove plaque, stain, and calculus (tartar) from tooth surfaces that are below the gumline and smooth the root surfaces to promote health and healing.

Site-Specific Antibiotic Therapy - to treat isolated periodontal infections at their source.
