Did you know that gum disease is the #1 cause of adult tooth loss? The oral disease causes bone and
tissue loss around the teeth, combined with symptoms such as:
Thankfully it’s possible to take charge of your periodontal health and reverse the effects of gum
disease before it is too late. Our customized periotherapy plans allow you to combat gum disease
using non-surgical, minimally invasive techniques that produce some of the most significant results
possible without having to undergo expensive surgical treatments.
Most of our periodontal treatments involve a series of deep cleaning, combined with laser therapy to enhance results and recovery. For experienced periodontal treatment in San Diego, choose True Design Dentistry.
Deep cleaning, also known as periodontal scaling and root planing, are periodontal therapeutic
procedures that remove calcified bacteria from the teeth just under the gum lines. True Design
Dentistry deep cleanings typically require one to two visits, with the gum treatment focused on one
quadrant of your mouth at a time. Each area is numbed for your comfort and then thoroughly cleaned
with an ultrasonic hand scaler and manual instrumentation to remove tartar and biofilm. After the
scaling, we also recommend the use of a soft-tissue laser to speed healing and treat diseased
tissues within the gum pocket. This creates a healthy environment so that your gums can reattach to
the tooth’s surface and the disease can be halted.
True Design Dentistry is one of the first San Diego dentists to offer a non-surgical laser alternative to periodontal therapy. Our periodontal lasers produce advanced results when combined with periodontal scaling and root planing procedures. With our customized care plan and oral hygiene guidance, we expect our patients to limit or reverse the impact of gum disease within just a few weeks. Schedule an exam with Dr. Refahi and our team to find out if it’s an option for you!
Catching a periodontal disease early is the best thing you can do for your smile. True Design Dentistry’s minimally invasive periodontal therapies and laser techniques provide our patients with the opportunity to retain their natural teeth rather than lose them. Don’t put your smile off another day. If bleeding and swollen gums are a way of life, then it’s time to change that. If you’ve already lost some of your teeth to gum disease, our dental implant services may be able to benefit you as well.
