From bleeding gums to deeper periodontal care, we help you stop gum disease and protect your teeth.
Understanding gum disease
Gum disease starts quietly, often with red, puffy, or bleeding gums, and if it's left alone it can progress to damage the bone that holds your teeth in place. The good news is that it's both preventable and treatable, especially when we catch it early.
At Grove Creek Dental, we screen your gums at every checkup and step in with the right level of care if we see a problem.
Catching it early
The earliest stage, gingivitis, shows up as gums that bleed when you brush or floss, or look red and swollen. At this point it's usually reversible with a professional cleaning and better home care.
If you notice bleeding, sensitivity, receding gums, or persistent bad breath, don't wait, early treatment is simpler and protects your teeth.
Treating advanced gum disease
When gum disease has progressed, we may recommend a deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) to remove buildup below the gumline and help the gums reattach. We'll then set you up with a maintenance schedule to keep it from coming back.
For gum recession, Dr. Jackson is also trained in the Pinhole Surgical Technique, a minimally invasive way to restore the gumline.
