Let Our Laser Restore Your Healthy Gums

If you have receding gums, the roots of your teeth are exposed. This can increase your risk for cavities on your roots, which can lead to tooth infections. That could mean root canal treatment or tooth replacements may become necessary.

When gums have receded, they are separated from your teeth. To treat this condition, we want to restore your periodontal tissue to its original position. We do this with the LANAP® procedure. Through laser-assisted regeneration, we can:

Correct your problem with little if any pain
Avoid cutting your gums to remove infected tissue
Seal the healthy tissue at the same time, so no stitches are needed in most cases
Help speed up your recovery compared to periodontal surgery

After the infected tissue is removed, we’ll clean the roots to remove plaque and tartar. This also helps your gums reattach to your teeth, which is good for your long-term oral health. If you have any concerns about this treatment, we offer local anesthesia and sedation options to ensure you are relaxed and pain-free during your procedure.

As part of our general dentistry, we keep an eye open for any signs of gum disease during your dental exams. Periodontal infections are a common cause of receding gums, but there are other factors that can cause this problem:

Some people are more likely to develop this condition due to genetics.
Hormone changes (such as puberty and pregnancy) can make your gums more susceptible to problems.
Aggressive tooth brushing can damage your gums.
Poor oral hygiene can allow harmful bacteria to thrive in your mouth.

Whether you want to maintain your oral health or you need gum recession treatment in Delray Beach, FL, you have a good reason to visit Designer Family Dental. Call 561-637-4443 today to schedule an appointment with us.

Common Questions About Gum Recession Treatment

Why would I need gum recession treatment?

If your gums have receded, from either injury or gum disease, gum recession treatment can restore your gums. Without treatment, your gums could continue to recede, and you would risk damaging your teeth or underlying bone. The eventual result could be tooth loss. All that can be avoided with early treatment.

Is gum recession treatment painful?

Your gum recession treatment at Designer Family Dental will be designed to go smoothly, with little to no discomfort. We’ll use the LANAP® procedure, which involves laser treatment to assist in gum tissue regeneration. We won’t have to do any cutting or use any stitches, as the laser safely removes damaged gum tissues and seals the area at the same time.

Can gum recession be treated naturally?

While it may be possible to treat some gum recession naturally, perhaps with over-the-counter medications, professional treatment is advised in most circumstances to help you avoid significant problems such as tooth and bone loss. It’s simply not worth it to risk your oral health on treatments that may or may not be effective at stopping gum recession and protecting your smile.
