Healthy gums are essential to maintaining a strong foundation for your teeth and overall oral health. At BioDent Smile, our dentist and team provide comprehensive periodontal care to help prevent, manage and treat gum disease at every stage. With a personalized approach and modern technology, we focus on protecting your oral health and improving long-term outcomes.
Gum disease often begins silently, with symptoms like bleeding gums, tenderness or mild swelling. Left untreated, it can progress into more severe conditions that may result in tooth loss or impact your general health. Our goal is to detect these issues early and provide effective treatments that preserve the health of your gums and supporting bone structures.
What to Expect from Periodontal Care
Our dentist will begin with a full periodontal evaluation, checking for signs of inflammation, gum recession, pocket depth and bone loss. This allows us to determine the most appropriate level of care for your needs.
Benefits of receiving professional periodontal care include:
• Improved gum and bone health
• Reduced risk of tooth loss
• Better breath and oral hygiene
• Early detection of gum disease
• Personalized treatment plans
Depending on your condition, treatment may include deep cleaning procedures, ongoing maintenance or targeted therapies designed to reduce bacteria and promote healing. Our team focuses on creating a calm, supportive environment where patients can feel comfortable and informed every step of the way.
Prioritizing Long-Term Oral Health
Periodontal care is not just about treating symptoms—it is about maintaining your oral health. Our dentist and team are committed to preventive strategies and patient education to help you stay on top of your oral health between visits. Regular cleanings, brushing, flossing and follow-up appointments are key components of successful gum care.
We are proud to offer advanced, gentle periodontal services in a welcoming and modern setting. Our goal is to build lasting relationships with patients who trust us to provide high-quality care that prioritizes comfort and results.

Frequently Asked Questions About Gum Disease Care
Can I have gum disease even if I brush and floss daily?
Yes. Some patients may develop gum disease due to genetics, health conditions or medications even with good oral hygiene. Regular exams help detect it early.
Is periodontal care painful?
Our treatments are designed to be gentle and effective. Discomfort is minimal, and our dentist will use numbing agents or other methods to ensure your comfort.
Will my gums grow back after treatment?
While receded gum tissue does not naturally regenerate, treatments can stop further loss. Our dentist may recommend options to restore gum health and appearance.
How often do I need periodontal maintenance?
Many patients benefit from more frequent cleanings every three to four months to manage gum disease and maintain results. This is based on your individual needs.
