About Periodontal Treatment
What Is Gum Disease?
Gum disease, or periodontal disease, is a bacterial infection caused by plaque and tartar buildup along the gumline. If left untreated, it can lead to gum recession, bone loss, and even tooth loss.
Common signs of gum disease include:
- Red, swollen, or tender gums
- Bleeding when brushing or flossing
- Receding gums or loose teeth
- Persistent bad breath
- Pus between gums and teeth
Our Periodontal Services in Bothell
At Hamamoto Dentistry, we take a proactive approach to gum care using modern, minimally invasive techniques.
- Scaling and Root Planing (Deep Cleaning)
This non-surgical treatment removes plaque and tartar below the gumline and smooths root surfaces to promote healing. - Maintenance Cleanings
For patients with a history of gum disease, we recommend periodontal maintenance every 3–4 months to prevent flare-ups. - Antibacterial Rinses and Irrigation
Targeted antimicrobial therapy helps reduce bacteria and inflammation in pockets between your teeth and gums. - Comprehensive Periodontal Evaluations
We use advanced probing and digital imaging to detect early signs of gum disease during your routine exams.
