Gum Disease Treatment

Laser Treatament for Gum DiseaseHave You Been Told You Need Gum Surgery?
A laser can sometimes be used in place of surgery for treatment of gum disease. We use a laser for nonsurgical treatments of milder cases of periodontal disease. It is virtually painless, yet very safe, effective, and FDA approved. It is an easy process that eliminates the infection and can actually help to regenerate any bone loss from prolonged gum infection. 


  


Defeat Gum Disease Painlessly
Arestin Gum Disease TreatmentThere is a general misconception that the main cause of tooth loss is decay. But it is periodontal (gum) disease. Infected gums need a powerful weapon to fight bacteria. Dr. Stutler offers his patients an effective antibiotic called ARESTIN™. The tiny, invisible microspheres are applied directly to the site of infection and are time-released to continually work to kill the bacteria. Not only does it do the job, it is entirely painless.

What is Plaque?

Plaque is a sticky, colorless deposit of bacteria that is constantly forming on the tooth surface. Saliva, food and fluids combine to produce these deposits that collect where the teeth and gums meet. Plaque buildup is the primary factor in periodontal (gum) disease, including gingivitis.

How to Get Rid of Plaque
To help prevent plaque buildup, be sure to brush your teeth at least twice a day with an anti-plaque toothpaste such as Crest Pro-Health Toothpaste for around the clock protection against plaque buildup, and floss once a day.

Adding a mouth rinse such as Crest Pro-Health Multi-Protection Rinse to your routine can help against plaque buildup, without the burning sensation of alcohol. Eating well-balanced meals and brushing after snacks will reduce the formation of plaque. Visit your dental office regularly for oral exams and cleanings, during which your dental professional will scrape away any accumulated plaque with a special instrument.
