Worried about gum health? Smile Restore Dentistry in Sansom Park offers expert periodontal disease treatment to stop gum disease and restore your smile.
Understanding Gum Health and Periodontal Disease
Did you know that gum health is just as important as the health of your teeth? Many patients focus solely on cavities, but your gums are the foundation of your smile. At Smile Restore Dentistry in Sansom Park, we believe that healthy gums are essential for a healthy body.
Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, is an infection of the tissues that hold your teeth in place. It’s typically caused by poor brushing and flossing habits that allow plaque—a sticky film of bacteria—to build up on the teeth and harden. If left untreated, this condition can lead to sore, bleeding gums, painful chewing problems, and even tooth loss.
Modern research also links untreated gum disease to broader health issues, including heart disease and diabetes. The good news is that with early detection and the right care, we can manage and often reverse the effects of gum disease.
Our Approach to Periodontal Therapy
At Smile Restore Dentistry, we combine our boutique dental experience with advanced clinical care. We understand that treating gum disease can feel intimidating, so we prioritize your comfort at every step. We don’t just treat the symptoms; we work with you to create a personalized plan that addresses the root cause of the infection.
Scaling & Root Planing
The first line of defense against periodontitis is often a non-surgical procedure called scaling and root planing.
- Scaling: We carefully remove plaque and tartar (calculus) from above and below the gum line.
- Root Planing: We smooth out your teeth roots to help your gums reattach to the teeth.
This thorough cleaning removes bacteria and provides a clean surface for your gums to heal. We ensure you are comfortable throughout the entire process, often using local anesthesia to minimize any sensitivity.
Periodontal Maintenance
Once we have the infection under control, we don’t just send you on your way. Gum disease requires ongoing management. We will switch you from a standard cleaning schedule to a periodontal maintenance schedule. These visits are typically more frequent (every 3 to 4 months) and allow us to monitor your gum pockets and clean areas that are difficult to reach at home.
Antibiotic Therapy
In some cases, we may use localized antibiotic treatments alongside cleaning procedures. We place these directly into the gum pockets to target aggressive bacteria and speed up the healing process.

Common Signs You May Need Gum Treatment
Gum disease is often silent in its early stages. You might not feel pain right away, which makes regular check-ups at our dental office vital. However, there are warning signs you can look out for at home.
If you notice any of the following, it is time to schedule a visit with us:
- Bleeding Gums: Seeing pink in the sink when you brush or floss is not normal.
- Persistent Bad Breath: Halitosis that won’t go away with brushing or mouthwash.
- Swollen or Tender Gums: Your gums should be firm and pink, not red or puffy.
- Receding Gums: If your teeth look longer than they used to, your gums may be pulling away.
- Loose Teeth: Permanent teeth should never feel loose or shift position.
