If you think you might have gum disease, then come to Care Dental Center in Carson for the best in periodontal treatment. Our highly experienced team knows the best ways to tackle gum disease and restore your oral health.
Periodontal disease is basically an infection of the gums that leads to swelling, bleeding, and potential tissue loss. At its extreme stages, periodontal disease can lead to tooth and bone loss. Therefore, it's important to get a handle on periodontal disease before it gets worse. Fortunately, we have safe and effective treatments, most of them noninvasive, that can effectively treat periodontal disease in Carson.
At Care Dental Center in Carson, we offer the latest technologies and advancements in periodontal treatment. We also offer the tried-and-true periodontal prevention methods, including routine periodontal cleanings. Common treatments that we use to treat periodontal disease aka gum disease include:
You'll be relaxing in the chair while our dental hygienist will be scraping the plaque and tartar away from the gum line. We may also use an ultrasound tool once in a while to help remove debris that's hard to get at. As with regular teeth cleaning, we'll floss your teeth at the end, polish them, and rinse your mouth out with mouthwash.
Deep periodontal cleaning, also known as root scaling and cleaning, is a more in-depth teeth cleaning that is done to help “reset” the teeth and gums back to a healthier baseline. This very deep cleaning will remove built up tartar below the gumline. We will use an ultrasound tool and will typically numb the gums to help keep you pain-free during the procedure.
When people develop advanced stages of periodontal disease, they can end up losing gum tissue as well as teeth. Soft tissue gum grafting is a surgical procedure to help replace gum tissue that has receded dangerously due to periodontal disease. There are different types of gum grafts, but usually the procedure involves taking some tissue from another part of the mouth or gums and grafting it onto the area where the gums have receded too much.
Restorative dentistry is a vast discipline that involves repairing damage inside the mouth. It can include replacing lost teeth, repairing gums, and even helping build up bone after bone loss. If you have been unfortunate enough to lose teeth due to periodontal disease, restorative dentistry can help replace those teeth with technologies such as dental bridges.
The cost of periodontal treatment depends on the specific treatment recommended by your dentist.

We take most forms of dental insurance, and we also offer convenient payment plans to help you with your periodontal dental treatments.
