Gum Disease Treatment

Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile — and your overall health. Dr. Anthony Price provides gentle, effective gum disease treatment for Germantown patients, catching and reversing problems early to protect your teeth for the long run.

What is gum disease?

Gum disease is an infection of the tissue that supports your teeth. Early on (gingivitis) it's reversible; left untreated it advances to periodontitis, which can lead to bone loss and tooth loss. Warning signs include bleeding, swollen, or receding gums and persistent bad breath.

Do you need treatment?

If your gums bleed when you brush, look red or swollen, or are pulling away from your teeth, an evaluation is important. Dr. Price will measure your gum health and recommend the right level of care.

The benefits

Protects your teeth and jawbone; reverses early gum disease; freshens breath and improves gum health; and supports your overall health, which is linked to gum health.

What to expect

A gum health evaluation; professional cleaning or deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) as needed; and a maintenance plan to keep gums healthy.
