Overview

Gum disease treatment (periodontal therapy) tackles the infection and inflammation that cause bleeding gums, bad breath and, untreated, tooth loss. Through deep cleaning below the gum line and tailored care, it restores healthy gums and protects the foundation of your teeth.

Benefits

  • Stops bleeding, swollen gums
  • Treats infection and bad breath
  • Protects teeth from loosening and loss
  • An essential base before cosmetic work

How it works

  1. 1

    Gum assessment

    We measure your gums and check for pockets and bone loss.

  2. 2

    Deep cleaning

    Plaque and tartar are removed above and below the gum line.

  3. 3

    Treatment

    Targeted therapy treats infected areas as needed.

  4. 4

    Maintenance plan

    You receive a tailored plan to keep gums healthy.

Aftercare & long-term tips

Follow your tailored cleaning routine, attend maintenance visits and treat any sensitivity as advised to keep gums healthy.

1

First 24 hours

Stick to soft, lukewarm foods and drinks; avoid very hot or hard items while any numbness or sensitivity settles.

2

First few days

Ease back into normal eating as sensitivity fades — usually within a few days.

3

Long term

Eat normally and protect your result with the simple habits below.

Do

  • Brush twice a day and floss daily
  • Attend your regular check-ups and cleanings
  • Wear a night guard if you grind your teeth
  • Keep the area clean and rinse as advised

Avoid

  • Biting very hard objects — ice, pen lids, shells
  • Opening bottle or soda caps with your teeth
  • Too many hard nuts or sticky, chewy sweets
  • Smoking and staining drinks in the first days
