If you notice bleeding while brushing, persistent bad breath, or tender, swollen gums, you may need non-surgical periodontal treatment. These early warning signs of gum disease shouldn’t be ignored. Other indicators include gums pulling away from teeth, forming “pockets” that trap bacteria, or teeth that feel loose or look longer due to receding gums.
Professional deep cleaning, known as scaling and root planing, can stop gum disease before it causes permanent damage. This treatment removes harmful bacteria and buildup both above and below the gum line, helping your gums heal and reattach to your teeth. Don’t wait until symptoms worsen. Early intervention prevents bone loss and protects your smile.
