What Periodontal Treatment Involves

Periodontics focuses on diagnosing, treating, and preventing gum and bone conditions that affect the stability of your teeth. Your visit begins with a comprehensive periodontal evaluation. Dr. Valentina Baez examines the gum tissue, measures pocket depths, reviews bone levels through imaging, and identifies early signs of inflammation or infection.

Depending on your needs, treatment may include deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), laser therapy, gum grafting, pocket reduction, periodontal maintenance, or tissue regeneration procedures. Each plan is tailored to address your specific level of gum disease, restore comfort, and protect long-term stability.

For patients with anxiety or complex needs, IV sedation—with Dr. Valentina’s certification—provides a safe, calming environment during gum surgery or advanced procedures.

Periodontal care at Signature Dental Group is designed to be gentle, precise, and deeply supportive.

Why Periodontal Health Matters

Gum disease often develops quietly. Many patients notice bleeding when brushing or flossing, mild discomfort, or gum recession without realizing these are early signs of periodontal problems. Without treatment, inflammation can progress and cause bone loss, tooth mobility, and even tooth loss.

Periodontal issues also affect overall health. Research has connected gum disease with diabetes, heart disease, and other systemic concerns. Treating gum problems early is not only about protecting your smile—it’s about safeguarding your long-term well-being.

When gum health is restored, patients experience greater comfort, fresher breath, improved confidence, and a stronger foundation for any cosmetic or restorative dental treatments.
