Protect your smile from gum disease
Healthy gums are the foundation of a strong, confident smile — but they need attention to stay that way. If you’ve noticed bleeding, swelling, or tenderness, it could be the start of gum disease. Our San Jose gum disease dentist offers gentle, targeted treatments to stop its progression, restore your gum health, and protect your teeth for the long term.
What do gum disease treatments help with?
- Reducing inflammation and tenderness in the gums
- Removing harmful bacteria that cause infection
- Preventing gum recession and tooth loss
- Supporting long-term oral and overall health
Preserve your natural teeth
Healthy gums keep your teeth secure and stable, and treating gum disease helps protect them for the long term.
Improve your comfort and confidence
Relieving swelling, bleeding, and sensitivity makes it easier to eat, speak, and smile without worry.
Protect your overall health
Gum health is linked to overall wellness, and treatment can lower risks tied to certain systemic conditions.
Prevent future dental issues
Addressing gum disease early helps you avoid more complex, costly treatments down the road.
Our approach to gum disease treatment
Scaling and root planing
A deep cleaning procedure that removes plaque and tartar from above and below the gumline to stop infection and promote healing.
Antibacterial irrigation
Specialized rinses flush out bacteria from periodontal pockets, reducing inflammation and supporting gum recovery.
Pocket reduction therapy
Minimally invasive treatment to shrink deep gum pockets, making it easier to clean and maintain healthy tissue.
Laser-assisted therapy
Gentle laser technology removes diseased tissue and targets bacteria while encouraging healthy gum regeneration.
