Scaling & Root Planing
This two-part process removes plaque from around your teeth and gumline, then smooths and reshapes the tooth roots to make it harder for bacteria to reattach in the future. Scaling and root planing restore gum health while also lowering the risk of reinfection over time.
LANAP Laser Gum Disease Treatment
LANAP, or Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure, is an innovative solution that preserves healthy gum tissue without invasive scalpels and sutures. As an FDA-cleared laser treatment, the device kills bacteria and removes infected tissue with incredible precision, enabling gum and bone regeneration during a shortened recovery period.
Arestin Antibiotic Treatment
We often use this in conjunction with scaling and root planing, ensuring even the tiniest remnants of bacteria are eliminated. We’ll apply it to the gum pockets so it disperses over several weeks, effectively restoring your oral health.
