Saving Teeth — When severe periodontal disease causes bone loss, teeth can become loose and at risk of being lost. In order to save them, the bone around them can be regenerated through grafting; this increases bone support and helps keep them in place.

Can you stop periodontitis from progressing?

Advanced gum disease, also called periodontal disease, cannot be reversed. However, our dentists are able to mitigate the damaging effects of periodontal disease through scaling and root planing. Periodontal treatment can help you avoid some of the more serious side effects, such as receding gums and tooth loss.

How bad does a deep cleaning hurt?

Some may not experience pain, especially those with minimal gum pocket depths; they may feel little or no discomfort throughout and after the cleaning process, even without administering anesthetics. On the other hand, some patients experience pain during and after the in-depth dental deep cleaning process.

Will gums grow back after scaling?

Scaling and root planing can manage the inflammation of the gum tissue. While it won’t regenerate new gum tissue, it may encourage the remaining gum tissue to reattach to the teeth. If you’ve lost a great deal of gum tissue, then you may need a surgical treatment called a gum graft.
