Smile Easier With Our Comprehensive Gum Disease Treatment Options
We have invested in some of the most leading-edge dental technology available. Depending on your situation, we may be able to treat your gum disease with our state-of-the-art PerioLase dental laser. Compared to other options, your procedure will be more comfortable and your healing period will be much shorter.
We can also relieve gum inflammation using the following special techniques:
- Scaling, a deep cleaning of your tooth roots and gum tissue
- Root planing, a process where we smooth your tooth roots to prevent bacteria from accumulating there
- Perio Protect®, an at-home treatment that uses customized trays filled with medication to relieve gum disease
If you have advanced gum disease, we may recommend gum disease surgery. Depending on your unique case, we can repair or replace your jawbone structure, bone and/or gum tissue, or gum ligaments.
Watch Out for Common Symptoms of Gum Disease
As many as half of all American adults suffer from some form of gum disease. Those with this problem may not even know it because they may not display symptoms. To know for certain, you should visit Bell Dental Group for a checkup and professional diagnosis.
In the early stages of gum disease, you may notice gums that bleed easily, sensitivity to hot or cold foods or beverages, persistent bad breath, and red, tender, and/or swollen gums. As the disease progresses, you may experience pain while chewing, gums that recede away from tooth roots, and teeth that feel loose.
Improve the health of your whole smile with Cincinnati gum disease treatment from Bell Dental Group. Call us today at 513-802-9440 to schedule your appointment.
Frequently Asked Questions About Gum Disease Treatment
What is gum disease treatment?
Gum disease treatment is designed to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria from around and under your gumline. Your hygienist or dentist will use special instruments to carefully get your gums back into shape, or they will use a gentle laser to remove damaged gum tissue and seal your gums back at the same time.
Is gum disease treatment painful?
Your gum disease treatment should be completely comfortable. We'll numb your gums so you don't feel any discomfort or pain during your treatment. In addition, if you're nervous about your procedure, we offer two forms of sedation for relaxing care. Choose inhaled sedation using laughing gas or oral conscious sedation with a small pill.
What are gum disease symptoms?
One symptom that many people notice is gums that bleed when brushing. Other symptoms include gums that look swollen and/or bright red, gums that feel tender, and bad breath that won't go away. It's important to seek attention right away when you notice these symptoms. As with many dental problems, it is easier and less expensive to treat gum disease in its early stages.
