Types of Periodontal Procedures We Offer

Explore periodontal treatments designed to manage gum disease, address gum recession, and support the health of the tissues surrounding your teeth. Your dentist will recommend suitable care based on your gum health and clinical assessment.

Deep Cleaning (Scaling & Root Planing)

Best for: Gum disease with plaque and tartar below the gumline

This treatment removes bacterial plaque and hardened tartar from beneath the gums and smooths root surfaces to help gum tissue heal and reduce periodontal pocket depth when appropriate.

Periodontal Flap Surgery

Best for: Advanced gum disease with deep periodontal pockets

When non-surgical treatment is not sufficient, a periodontist may gently reposition gum tissue to access deep areas for cleaning. Additional treatment may be considered depending on the condition of the supporting bone and tissues.

Gum Grafting

Best for: Gum recession and exposed tooth roots

Gum grafting adds tissue to areas affected by gum recession. Depending on the case, it can help cover exposed roots, protect vulnerable tooth surfaces, reduce sensitivity, and improve the gumline.

Crown Lengthening

Best for: Selected restorative and cosmetic dental needs

This procedure reshapes gum tissue and, when necessary, supporting bone to expose more of the natural tooth. It may be recommended to help prepare a tooth for restoration or to adjust an uneven gumline.

01 Is cosmetic dentistry painful?

Most cosmetic treatments, such as teeth whitening and dental bonding, involve little to no discomfort. Some procedures may cause temporary sensitivity. For treatments such as porcelain veneers, local anesthesia may be used when appropriate to help keep you comfortable throughout the procedure.

02 How long do cosmetic dentistry results last?

The lifespan of cosmetic dental results depends on the treatment, your oral hygiene, and your lifestyle. Typical estimates include:

  • Teeth Whitening: Around 1–3 years, depending on diet and habits.
  • Porcelain Veneers: Often 10–15 years or longer with proper care.
  • Dental Bonding: Around 3–7 years before repair or replacement may be needed.

Regular dental checkups, brushing, flossing, and avoiding habits that damage teeth can help maintain your results.

03 Will my cosmetic results look natural?

Cosmetic treatments can be tailored to complement your natural teeth, smile, and facial features. Your dentist will discuss suitable tooth shapes and shades to help achieve a natural-looking, harmonious result.

04 How much does cosmetic dentistry cost?

The cost varies depending on the treatment, the number of teeth involved, and the materials used. During your consultation, our team can assess your needs and explain the recommended treatment options and associated costs before you proceed.

05 What is the difference between teeth whitening and veneers?

Teeth Whitening lightens natural teeth by reducing discoloration and stains. It does not change the shape of your teeth.

Porcelain Veneers are thin coverings bonded to the front surfaces of selected teeth. They can improve the appearance of discoloration, chips, gaps, and certain shape concerns. Your dentist can help you determine which option suits your needs.

06 Can I preview my smile before treatment?

Depending on your treatment and the available technology, digital photographs, assessments, or smile simulations may help you understand the proposed changes. Your dentist will explain what preview options are available and how closely they may represent the final result.
