Treatments
Periodontics and laser gum contouring
We diagnose and treat gum disease to protect the foundation of your smile, and reshape the gum line when needed.
Gingivitis and periodontitis are silent: they start with bleeding or swollen gums and, if untreated, can lead to tooth loss. We treat them with deep cleanings, periodontal therapy and maintenance visits.
Gum contouring (gingivectomy) corrects a “gummy smile” or an uneven gum line. With a dental laser the procedure is more precise and recovery is usually more comfortable.
