Gum Disease Treatment
Pristine Oral health starts at the gums
Most people experience gum disease at some point in their life. In fact, half of adults age 30+ and more than 70% of adults age 70+ experience gum disease.
Are you experiencing any of the following:
- Tender or swollen gums
- Bleeding gums after brushing or flossing?
- Chronic bad breath?
- Receding gums?
If you have answered yes, you might be one of the many people out there experiencing gum disease. When left untreated, gum disease can lead to bone loss, tooth loss or other serious systemic issues. At Nassau By Dental, we work hard with our patients to prevent and treat gum disease.
Gum Disease Treatment at Nassau Bay Dental
While brushing and flossing are a great place to start when it comes to preventing gum disease, it is not always enough. We offer a number of periodontal treatments. We will work with you to determine which is right for your particular situation.
Deep cleanings
You can count on regular teeth cleanings to clean the visible part of your teeth, but to get to the bacteria that can cause gum disease, you need to get below the gumline. Using specialized tools, deep cleanings remove any bacterial built up beneath your gums, allowing them to heal naturally. Not only does this prevent gum disease from developing, it’s also a great way to treat mild and developing cases.
Sedation Dentistry
The key to proper periodontal treatment is comfort. At Nassau Bay Dental, providing our patients with a comfortable experience is one of our guiding philosophies. We offer sedation dentistry options to our patients to help them feel at ease during our gum disease treatments and ensure an anxiety-free experience.
We offer…
- Nitrous oxide
- Prescription medications
- IV sedation
