Non-Surgical Treatment of Periodontal Disease

Save Your Smile Without Invasive Surgery

Advanced Technology for Sensitive Gums

If you notice red, swollen, or bleeding gums, you might feel anxious about the prospect of painful oral surgery. We understand those concerns and want to put your mind at ease. Early stages of gum disease can usually be treated using conservative techniques that heal your infected tissue comfortably.

Our multi-pronged approach targets the root cause of the problem without invasive measures. By using gentle ultrasonic technology and targeted treatments, we stop the disease from progressing. This helps you avoid the discomfort and long recovery times often associated with traditional surgery.

Experience Gentle Healing and Total Comfort

Treating gum disease should be a stress-free experience that prioritizes your comfort while effectively stopping infection in its tracks.

Maximum Comfort: Our ultrasonic technology ensures a remarkably gentle experience that eliminates the need for traditional, more intensive dental instruments.
Rapid Recovery: Since these treatments are minimally invasive, you can enjoy a fast healing process and return to your normal routine almost immediately.
ETooth Preservation: By targeting the bacteria that cause bone loss, we strengthen your dental foundation to help you keep your natural teeth for a lifetime.
Advanced Precision: Modern tools allow us to focus exclusively on the infection, preserving your healthy tissue while thoroughly disinfecting your smile.

Support Every Step of the Way

We tailor your treatment to ensure your maximum comfort and long-term success. Your personalized plan may include the following steps:

Step 1: Finding the Source of Your Infection

Every patient’s health is unique. To remove the guesswork from your healing, we may identify the specific bacteria present in your mouth. This allows us to move forward with a targeted plan that addresses your specific needs. By understanding the exact nature of the infection, we can provide the most effective care from the very first visit.

Step 2: A Gentler Way to Deeply Clean

Traditional deep cleanings can feel intimidating. We utilize comfortable ultrasonic technology that uses gentle vibrations to flush away plaque and hardened tartar from beneath your gum line. This modern approach is much more thorough than a standard cleaning, yet it is designed to be remarkably gentle on your sensitive gum tissue.

Step 3: Applying Medicine Right Where Needed

To help your gums heal from the inside out, we often use targeted antibiotic therapy. Our team can place specialized medications like Arestin directly into the infected areas. This ensures the medicine works exactly where it is needed most, fighting bacteria long after you leave our office and supporting your body’s natural ability to recover.

Step 4: Disinfecting Your Smile in One Visit

For many patients, we recommend advanced LANAP laser therapy to achieve a full mouth disinfection quickly. We use the PerioLase MVP-7 Laser, which is the only FDA approved laser for this specific procedure. This high-tech tool allows us to vaporize bacteria and diseased tissue while leaving your healthy gums completely intact. You can achieve significant healing in just a single appointment.

Step 5: Celebrating Your New Healthy Smile

Your journey does not end when you leave the chair. Four weeks after your treatment, we meet again to evaluate your progress and celebrate your success. During this visit, we often see that periodontal pockets have disappeared as your gums naturally shrink and tighten around your teeth. We will then provide you with a simple plan to maintain your vibrant health at home.

Our doctors champion a conservative philosophy, prioritizing non-surgical solutions to safeguard your natural health. As leaders in the field, our team balances high-level clinical skill with a perceptive approach that addresses the root of your concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I Heal Without Using Surgery?

Yes. In many cases, we can successfully treat gum disease using non-surgical methods. By combining deep ultrasonic cleanings with laser therapy and targeted antibiotics, we can eliminate infection and help your gums heal without the need for traditional surgery.

How Does Laser Therapy Help You?

We use the LANAP procedure, which utilizes a specific laser to target and remove bacteria and diseased tissue. This technology is very precise. It leaves your healthy gum tissue untouched while promoting faster healing and natural reattachment to your teeth.

When Will Your Gums Feel Better?

Initial healing begins immediately, but we typically see the full results about four weeks after your treatment. At that time, we will re-evaluate your gums to ensure the infection is gone and the tissue has successfully tightened around your teeth.

Can Advanced Cases Avoid Surgery?

Non-surgical therapy is almost always the best first step even for advanced cases. It improves the overall health of your gums. This can limit the areas that might eventually need surgery. Many of our patients find that they can avoid conventional pocket reduction surgery entirely after completing these treatments.
