Periodontal treatments to restore your smile
Periodontal disease is inflammation and infection of your gums and the bone that supports your teeth. It can be a result of poor hygiene. Symptoms may include bad breath, loose teeth and bleeding, swollen gums. There are many treatments available, depending on the severity of disease.

Periodontal disease symptoms
The more advanced stage of gum disease, periodontal disease, is not reversible and can lead to tooth loss. It’s important to get immediate dental support to recover the health of your teeth and gums. The good news is, your Dental Corner team can design a care plan to restore your oral health.
Periodontal disease (periodontitis) treatment option
Your Dental Corner dentist will work with you to determine the best care plan for you and your smile. Discover possible periodontal disease treatment options below.
- Treatment for early stage gum disease: Gingivitis is the earliest stage of gum disease. It’s relatively easy to treat and can usually be controlled with a cleaning from your Dental Corner care team. Your team will also design a personalized treatment plan and give you helpful advice to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
- Treatment for periodontitis: If things progress beyond gingivitis, it can affect the bone supporting your teeth, also known as periodontitis. The first step to periodontal disease treatment usually involves scaling and root planing. This treatment may be done over more than one visit, depending on your personal needs.
- Scaling: First, your dentist or hygienist removes plaque and tartar with specialized instruments below the gum line and disinfects the area using medication.
- Root planing: Then, the root surfaces of your teeth are smoothed, or “planed”, to promote the gum tissue to heal and reattach to the roots of your teeth. To enhance healing and minimize any discomfort, it’s possible that your dentist may recommend a prescription for you.
- Treatment for advanced periodontitis: Sometimes, scaling and root planing isn’t enough to completely treat the gum disease. If your periodontal pockets don’t fully heal after scaling and root planing, periodontal surgery may be the best next step. Surgery can help remove plaque and tartar from hard-to-reach areas. Your dentist will advise you of the stage of gum disease and potential outcomes during consult.

I give this place 10⭐
5 stars ain’t enough.
10/10! I went in last minute in horrible pain and they fit me right in. I think I was in the waiting for for 2 minutes. They immediately took X-rays and started the numbing process. I’ve never been so happy to get shots in the mouth 😂. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful they explained what they could do and the price point and varying options before doing any work. The building was clean and neat and the rooms were also very clean. Would definitely recommend
I went to the Dental Corner in excruciating pain, I was so grateful they fit me into their schedule as emergency care, this is when I met Dr Motaref and his staff. I share with you from the receptionist to the dental staff, all were exceptional in every way. I had my final visit today, I literally feel my mouth is “happy”. I am so grateful and highly recommend you give them a call the next time you need dental care.
