Periodontal care that goes beyond a deep cleaning
If your gums are bleeding, receding, or you've been told you have gum disease, you should see a specialist - not a general dentist. Better outcomes, less re-treatment.
Treatments & pricing
Deep cleaning (scaling & root planing)
Removes plaque and bacteria below the gumline. The first step in reversing early gum disease.
Gum graft
Restores receded gum tissue. Modern techniques use minimal donor tissue with same-day recovery.
Laser therapy (LANAP)
Minimally-invasive alternative to gum surgery. No scalpel, no sutures, faster healing.
Crown lengthening
Reshapes gum + bone to expose more tooth. Used for cosmetic gummy-smile correction or to save a damaged tooth.
Prices are estimates for self-pay patients before insurance. Insurance reduces costs significantly. Financing available - most patients qualify in minutes via Cherry or Sunbit.
Frequently asked
How do I know if I have gum disease?
Common signs: bleeding when you brush or floss, persistent bad breath, gums that look red or pull away from teeth, loose teeth. A periodontal probe measures pocket depth - over 4mm indicates active disease.
Can gum disease be reversed?
Early gingivitis: yes, with proper cleaning and home care. Moderate-to-severe periodontitis: we can stop progression and restore comfort, but lost bone doesn't fully regrow. The earlier you treat it, the more we save.
What is LANAP laser gum surgery?
LANAP is FDA-cleared laser therapy that treats gum disease without scalpel or sutures. Faster healing (typically 1-2 days vs 2 weeks for traditional surgery), less pain, less gum recession after.
Is a deep cleaning the same as scaling and root planing?
Yes - 'deep cleaning' is the patient term for scaling and root planing (SRP). It removes plaque and bacteria below the gumline. Typically done in 2 visits (upper one day, lower another) with local anesthesia.
Will my insurance cover periodontal treatment?
Most dental insurance covers periodontal therapy at 50-80% with deductible. We verify benefits before treatment. Membership Plan members get 15% off all periodontal procedures.
