GUM DISEASE TREATMENT IN MANHATTAN, NY
Instead of allowing gum disease to progress to its more dangerous forms, seek early treatment. It is most effective to prevent gum disease or treat it with deep cleanings at Parsons Smile Center while it is still in its milder stages.
WHAT IS GUM DISEASE?
Gum disease can start out as a minor irritation, but can eventually destroy the bone that surrounds and supports your teeth. It is difficult to regain the proper function and youthful appearance of your smile after bone deterioration and tooth loss.
HOW DO I KNOW IF I HAVE GUM DISEASE?
Gum disease is often linked to patients who have poor dental hygiene habits, use tobacco or alcohol, or have a genetic history with the disease. At the same time, periodontal disease can still be detrimental for men and women of any age, so it is important to look for the following symptoms of gum disease:
- Bad breath
- Toothache
- Loose teeth or tooth loss
- Receding gums
- Tender gums
- Bright red gums
- Swelling or bleeding when brushing or flossing
“Dr. Salha, you are by far the best dentist in the world in my opinion. Thank you for always being considerate and making each visit a pleasant one stress free. You were right the gum cleaning (although I was very sore for a cpl of hours) was not as bad as I had imagined mostly I am sure because of you. And thank you for being my dentist, I would not trade you for the world!”

TREATING PERIODONTAL DISEASE IN MANHATTAN
Dr. Salha and his team often treat periodontal disease with a deep dental cleaning. This may involve scaling and root planing, which is a non-surgical procedure that will reduce plaque buildup.
Our gum disease treatment team will also help you design an at-home care routine that will allow you to control periodontal disease outside the office. We may also suggest more frequent teeth cleanings than we prescribe to our patients with healthy gums.
Dr. Salha might recommend other gum disease treatments in Manhattan, including antibiotics or surgery.
