Relief from Gum Disease Pain

Pinetree Dental provides personalized gum disease care, from non-surgical scaling to surgical interventions, protecting your smile and overall health.

What Is Gum Disease Treatment?

Gum disease treatment involves procedures to restore health to infected gums and prevent tooth loss. Treatments range from non-surgical deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) to surgical interventions like flap surgery or bone grafts for advanced cases. The goal is to eliminate infection, reduce inflammation, and promote healing.

What Causes Gum Disease?

Gum disease is primarily caused by plaque buildup—a sticky film of bacteria that forms on teeth. If not removed through brushing and flossing, plaque hardens into tartar, which irritates gums, leading to inflammation (gingivitis) and eventually advanced infection (periodontitis) that can damage bone and tissue.

Symptoms of Gum Disease

Common symptoms include red, swollen, or tender gums that bleed easily during brushing or flossing. Persistent bad breath, receding gums, loose teeth, and pus between gums and teeth are also warning signs. Early detection is key to preventing irreversible damage.

Our Approach to Gum Disease Treatment

Treatment begins with professional deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) to remove plaque and tartar. For advanced cases, surgical options like flap surgery or bone grafts may be necessary. Ongoing maintenance includes improved oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups to manage the condition.
