Modern Gum Disease Treatment In Delray Beach

Even if you brush twice daily and floss every day, you still need to visit a dentist regularly to ensure that nothing bad, like gum disease, is unfolding in your mouth. In fact, today we wanted to tell you about a great gum disease treatment that we can perform here if something like that ever happens to you. Unlike many other offices in the area, we are able to use a dental laser to remove any infected gum tissue. This is a simpler and more efficient solution than gum surgery. Laser scaling also allows us to remove the plaque and tartar buildup below the gum-line that caused all the problems to begin with. That step is followed by a process called root planing which smooths the surfaces of your tooth roots to reduce the chances for further buildup of bacteria, plaque, and tartar. For more info about scaling and root planing, take a look at the video clip below that comes to us from the ADA.
