Healthier Gums, Healthier You
what is Gum Care
Gingivitis is reversible; untreated inflammation can progress to periodontitis with bone loss. We provide clear explanations, staged non-surgical therapy (scaling & root planing), targeted adjuncts where indicated, and 4–8 week re-evaluations to measure healing. Maintenance every 3–4 months helps prevent relapse.
Ideal Candidates
- Bleeding gums, bad breath, recession, loose teeth, or family history of gum disease. Pregnancy, diabetes, smoking, bruxism, and dry mouth increase risk.
- Reduces bleeding and inflammation, slows bone loss
- Improves breath and comfort; cleaning becomes easier
- Stabilizes teeth and supports long-term oral health
- Full periodontal charting + radiographs (as indicated)
- Personalized plan (stage/grade, risk factors, home-care tools)
- Non-surgical therapy (quadrant/half-mouth; gentle and well-numbed)
- Adjuncts PRN (localized antimicrobials, short-course rinses)
- Re-evaluation at 4–8 weeks (measure healing)
- Maintenance every 3–4 months (coaching & reinforcement)
- Eat a light meal; take regular meds unless advised otherwise. Expect brief tenderness after SRP; warm salt water and OTC analgesics help. Resume thorough brushing/interdental cleaning with gentle technique as comfort returns.
- Transient sensitivity, slight recession (swelling subsides), and aesthetic changes (spaces may look larger as tissues heal). Without maintenance, inflammation can return.
- No substitute for subgingival debridement; surgical options may be considered if deep pockets persist after therapy.
