Gum Health & Periodontal Care

​

Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. Gum disease is a common condition caused by bacteria and plaque buildup around the teeth and beneath the gumline. Without proper treatment, it can lead to gum recession, bone deterioration, and eventual tooth loss.

Because gum disease often develops gradually and without pain, many people may not realize they have it until symptoms become more advanced. Regular dental visits are essential for identifying early signs and preventing long-term damage.

 

Common Symptoms of Gum Disease

​

You may benefit from a periodontal evaluation if you experience:

• Gums that bleed when brushing or flossing

• Chronic bad breath

• Gum tenderness or swelling

• Teeth that feel loose or shifting

• Receding gums or teeth appearing longer

• Sensitivity while chewing

• Changes in bite alignment

Our team uses advanced diagnostic tools to evaluate gum health and determine the most effective treatment plan for your individual needs.

Personalized Periodontal Treatment

​

At Claros Dentistry, we offer both preventive and therapeutic solutions for managing gum disease and protecting your oral health.

Deep Cleaning Therapy

For patients with early to moderate gum disease, scaling and root planing may be recommended to remove bacteria and buildup beneath the gums and smooth the root surfaces.

Ongoing Gum Maintenance

Patients with a history of periodontal disease may require more frequent cleanings to help maintain gum health and prevent reinfection.

​

Restorative Solutions

​

When gum disease has affected the stability or appearance of teeth, restorative treatments may be recommended to rebuild function and support your smile.
