Healthy gums are essential for a healthy mouth and teeth. That’s why if you think you have gum disease, consult your Warner dentist as soon as possible.

Treatments Available for Gum Disease

At Warner Lakes Dental, we offer gum disease treatment done in different stages:

Stage 1 – Removal of plaque and calculus. This procedure might require 2 to 4 appointments, depending on how severe the disease is.

Stage 2 – Providing oral hygiene instructions, which includes brushing and flossing techniques.

Stage 3 – Educate the patients about smoking habits and advising possible changes in eating habits.

Stage 4 – We will create a long-term treatment plan. Your dentist will monitor your gums for improvement during your check-ups. If no improvements are observed, the dentist will refer you to a specialist.

During and After the Gum Treatment

  • You will experience a slight discomfort during the treatment. Your dentist will use local anaesthetic to reduce the pain.
  • Gums will become tender and swollen for a few days following the procedure.
  • Teeth will become sensitive for around 1 week but this sensation will lessen over time.
  • Gums will return to normal in a short time.
