Gum Disease Treatment in Rochester, NY
At Beach Perio, Implants & Medspa in Rochester, NY, we take gum health seriously. While many cases of gum disease can be effectively managed with routine dental care, advanced gum disease, or periodontitis, may require more specialized treatment.
Signs of Severe Gum Disease
Periodontitis is a serious oral health condition that requires immediate attention. Signs that you may have severe gum disease include:
- Persistent bad breath.
- Receding gumline.
- Exposed tooth roots.
- Loose or shifting teeth.
- Deep pockets forming between your teeth and gums.
- Red, inflamed, or bleeding gums.
- Pus around the teeth and gums.
Severe Gum Disease Treatment Options
At Beach Perio, Implants & Medspa, we offer specialized treatments for periodontitis depending on your specific needs:
- Pocket Reduction Surgery: Pocket reduction surgery, also called flap surgery, is done to clean the pockets between your teeth and gums to reduce their depth and make it easier to maintain good oral hygiene.
- Tissue Grafts: Periodontitis can damage your gums, which increases your risk of losing teeth. Tissue grafts are done to address gum recession and protect the roots of your teeth to keep your smile intact.
- Bone Grafts: Untreated periodontitis can cause bone loss around your teeth. If that happens, bone grafts can be done to stimulate bone regeneration and provide essential support for your teeth.
Benefits of Treatment for Severe Gum Disease
Treatment for periodontitis is vital because it can:
- Preserve your natural teeth.
- Improve the health and appearance of your gums.
- Prevent more serious oral health problems.

"If we could give Dr Beach 100 stars we would. She is taking care of an issue my husband is having. She called us personally, on vacation, to help him resolve the issue. She came into the office early, when we returned to make certain everything had been resolved. She's more than a dentist, she's more than a dentist, she's like family. She goes over and beyond what anyone would expect a doctor to do. She's AMAZING!"
