Periodontal Treatment & Gum Care in NE Calgary

Comprehensive gum assessments and personalized treatment plans to manage and prevent gum disease.

Overview

Gum disease progresses quietly, often starting with nothing more than mild bleeding when you brush. At London Square Dental, our periodontal treatment and gum care services in NE Calgary focus on catching gum problems early and managing them before they cause lasting damage to your teeth and jawbone.

What Is Periodontal Treatment

Periodontal treatment addresses the health of your gums and the bone that supports your teeth.

Based on the findings, we create a personalized treatment plan that may include deep cleaning and ongoing maintenance visits to keep gum disease under control.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens at a periodontal assessment?
We measure the pocket depth around each of your teeth, check for signs of bone loss, and evaluate your overall gum health. Based on these findings, we build a personalized treatment plan for you.
How do you measure gum pocket depth?
A small, calibrated instrument is gently used to measure the space between your gum and tooth at several points around each tooth. Deeper pockets can indicate more advanced gum disease.
Can gum disease be treated without surgery?
Yes, many cases of gum disease are managed successfully with non-surgical treatment like deep cleaning and ongoing maintenance visits. More advanced cases may require additional treatment, which we will discuss if it applies to you.
How often do I need periodontal maintenance?
This depends on the severity of your gum disease and is determined after your assessment. Some patients need maintenance visits every three to four months, while others can return to a standard six month schedule.
Is periodontal treatment covered by insurance?
Many insurance plans cover a portion of periodontal treatment. We direct bill your insurance and help you understand your specific coverage before treatment begins.
