How We Treat Gum Disease

Treatment depends on the stage. Early gingivitis often responds to professional cleaning and improved home care. More advanced gum disease may need scaling and root planing, and we offer gentle laser therapy (see our Laser Dentistry page) to reduce bacteria and support healing.

Many extended dental plans help cover this treatment. Coverage varies by plan, so our team will gladly verify your exact benefits before treatment — just call and we’ll check for you.
