Gum Disease Treatment

Good dental hygiene includes attentive care of your teeth and gums. But sometimes, gums need extra help to prevent the onset and effects of gum disease.

At Bethany Heights Dental Care, in Allen, TX we want to help you prevent and treat gum disease before it deteriorates your smile and becomes a dental emergency. So, at every visit, our team checks for signs of gingivitis, the earliest stage of periodontitis. Catching and addressing it right away can help save you from potential tooth loss and extensive treatment.

When preventing, diagnosing, and treating gum disease, there are several steps we take to help you ensure that your gums and teeth are as healthy as possible. During your visit, we will always begin with a dental exam, measuring the depth of pockets around each tooth. From here, we will take an X-ray to identify signs of decay and gum disease within your jaw, gums, and teeth. From this point, we will work closely with you to formulate a treatment plan and stop gingivitis and periodontal disease, which always starts with thorough cleaning. 

We know dental work can produce anxiety for many, which is why we do our absolute best to make sure your experience is easy and efficient. 

The important thing to remember is that no mouth is hopeless! Even if you already have gum disease, our team at Bethany Heights Dental Care, in Allen, TX can help. Many people experience anxiety or shame around dental care — but rest assured, we’ve seen it all and we won’t judge. Don’t suffer from gum disease and deteriorating teeth. Let our team help.
