Restore your gum health and protect your smile with expert periodontal care.

What is Periodontal Care?

Periodontal care focuses on preventing, diagnosing, and treating conditions that affect the gums and the supporting structures of the teeth. Whether you’re dealing with gum recession, advanced periodontal disease, or aesthetic concerns like a “gummy smile,” our periodontal treatments are designed to be precise, effective, and as gentle as possible. With the expertise of Dr. Mardini, we offer a personalized approach to gum health that blends modern surgical techniques with a focus on comfort and long-term success.

Healthier Gums and Teeth

Periodontal care helps stop the progression of gum disease, prevents tooth loss, and reduces inflammation throughout the mouth. With consistent treatment, patients often notice less bleeding, better breath, and improved overall oral health.

Minimally Invasive Techniques

We use advanced techniques to make your care as comfortable and conservative as possible. Whether it’s a gum graft or pocket reduction surgery, our approach focuses on precision and reducing recovery time.

Improved Smile Aesthetics

From gum lifts to tissue reshaping, periodontal treatment isn’t just about health—it’s also about how your smile looks. By balancing gum tissue, we can reveal more of your natural teeth and create a more harmonious smile.

Gum Grafting for Recession

If you’ve experienced gum loss due to brushing habits or gum disease, a gum graft can restore the protective tissue around your teeth. This procedure covers exposed roots, reduces sensitivity, and helps prevent further damage.

Crown Lengthening (Gum Lift)

Whether you have a “gummy smile” or need more tooth exposed for restorative work, crown lengthening reshapes excess gum tissue to reveal a more balanced, confident smile—or make space for a future crown or veneer.

Osseous Surgery (Pocket Reduction)

When deep gum pockets form due to periodontal disease, osseous surgery removes infection and reshapes the underlying bone to allow the gums to reattach more closely to the teeth. This reduces future bacterial buildup and helps preserve your smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

We have answers for you!

Is periodontal treatment painful?

Our periodontal procedures are designed to be as comfortable as possible. We use local anesthesia and sedation options when needed, and many treatments are minimally invasive with quick recovery times.

Will my gums grow back on their own?

Once gum tissue is lost, it typically doesn’t grow back naturally. Gum grafting is the most effective way to restore lost tissue and protect your teeth and overall oral health.

Do I need to see a periodontist?

If you have signs of gum disease, gum recession, or are planning for restorative or cosmetic dental work, seeing a periodontist like Dr. Mardini ensures you get specialized care that supports both your health and long-term results.
