Preventive care

Periodontal Care in Hales Corners

Gum disease affects more than half of adults, often without any warning. We treat it gently and without judgment.

Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy mouth, yet gum disease is easy to miss in its early stages. We look for it at every visit and, when we find it, treat it with a plan matched to how far it has progressed. Caught early, gum disease is often reversible.

What we offer

Deep cleaning

Scaling and root planing removes tartar below the gumline and smooths root surfaces so gums can heal.

Targeted medication

Antibiotics and antimicrobial gel help control infection in the pocket where it lives.

Advanced treatment

For severe cases, we can address pocket reduction and grafts or coordinate care as needed.

Stages of gum disease

Stage 1

Gingivitis

The earliest stage and reversible with prompt care.

Stage 2

Periodontitis

Damage becomes permanent, so treatment focuses on stopping its progress.

Stage 3

Advanced periodontitis

The most serious stage, which may require extraction.
