How is Gum Disease Treated? | Periodontist in Wayne, NJ | Bruce Fine DDS

You might be wondering about the treatment of gum disease. Our primary objective is to eliminate the bacteria causing the issue. In cases where the disease is relatively shallow, our approach involves a thorough cleaning. This is because over time, bacteria can harden into tartar or calculus, which cannot be removed by regular brushing, flossing, or the use of a water pick. These efforts primarily target the removal of plaque, which is a bacterial buildup on your teeth.

For individuals with minor gum disease, slight bleeding, or minor swelling, we typically recommend a deep cleaning. This procedure is painless, as we numb the affected area using a numbing rinse, allowing us to perform a deep cleaning without you experiencing discomfort.

In situations where the gum disease has progressed to a more severe stage, resulting in deep pockets around the teeth due to bone loss from bacterial activity, we offer a specialized treatment called LANAP, which stands for laser-assisted new attachment procedure. This innovative approach not only targets the bacteria within your gums and teeth but also promotes bone regeneration to eliminate gum disease.

We are enthusiastic about the opportunity to meet with you and discuss your specific situation further. Our aim is to provide the most effective treatment plan to address your gum disease and improve your oral health. Please don't hesitate to contact us, and we look forward to assisting you. Have a great day!
