Giving Gums the Care They Deserve
Your teeth are not the only parts of your smile that need proper care. Your gums can also become a victim of a bacterial attack. This is why Dr. Waqar, Dr. Ku, and Dr. Latif offer gum disease treatment that targets inflamed tissues so that proper healing can occur. Using scaling and root planing as well as laser periodontal treatment, we aim to give your gums the care they deserve so that your smile will continue to remain healthy for years to come. If you are worried about the state of your oral tissues, call Clover Dental Care to schedule an appointment for gum disease treatment at our Wallington dental office.

Scaling & Root Planing
Once it is determined that you have gum disease, we will recommend that you receive what is known as deep cleaning. This two-part process involves scaling, which requires our team to remove plaque and tartar from your teeth and around the gumline, as well as root planing, which involves smoothing out the roots of your teeth so that reattachment occurs, and the chances of reinfection are reduced.
Laser Periodontal Treatment
When gum pockets form as a result of periodontal (gum) disease, it’s easy for bacteria to become trapped. It’s also a sign that bone loss is likely to occur. To help with bone regeneration and proper reattachment with the gums, we can use our PerioLase® LANAP laser. By targeting the diseased tissues within your gum pockets, the laser effectively eliminates bacteria without touching healthy tissues.
