Sometimes a tooth is healthy — but hidden under the gum.

Crown lengthening gently removes excess gum tissue to expose more of the tooth, allowing proper restoration and long-term stability.

⚠️ You may need crown lengthening if:
• Teeth appear short or covered by gum
• A cavity or fracture is below the gumline
• Gum tissue interferes with a crown or restoration

Dental plaque is a sticky film of bacteria that constantly forms on your teeth. When plaque is not removed through brushing and flossing, it hardens into tartar (also called calculus). Tartar cannot be removed by brushing alone and requires professional dental cleaning.

Plaque and tartar buildup along the gumline can irritate the gums, leading to gingivitis and eventually periodontal disease if untreated. Regular dental cleanings, daily brushing, and flossing help prevent plaque buildup and protect your teeth and gums.

Maintaining good oral hygiene and visiting your dental professional regularly are key steps to keeping your smile healthy.

When there isn’t enough bone in the upper jaw for a dental implant, a sinus augmentation can create the space needed.

By gently lifting the sinus and placing a bone graft, this procedure builds a strong foundation for long-term implant success.

Gingivitis is a common form of gum disease caused by plaque buildup along the gumline. It can lead to redness, swelling, bleeding gums, and bad breath if left untreated. The good news is that gingivitis is usually reversible with proper oral hygiene and professional dental care.

Regular dental cleanings, daily brushing, and flossing help remove plaque and bacteria that irritate the gums. Early detection and treatment can prevent gingivitis from progressing into more serious periodontal disease.

Protect your gum health and maintain a healthy smile by practicing good oral care and visiting your dental professional regularly.

Periodontal treatment focuses on stopping gum disease and restoring healthy gum tissue. Treatments may include deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), antibacterial therapy, and ongoing periodontal maintenance to prevent disease from returning.

By removing plaque, tartar, and bacteria below the gumline, periodontal therapy helps reduce inflammation, protect the bone around teeth, and support long-term oral health. Regular dental visits and proper oral hygiene are key to keeping your gums healthy.

Persistent bad breath?
It may be more than food or coffee — it can be a sign of gum infection hiding below the gumline.

Bad breath that doesn’t go away after brushing is often caused by bacteria trapped under the gums, where regular brushing can’t reach.

Warning Signs

• Bad breath that returns quickly after brushing
• Bleeding while brushing or flossing
• Swollen, tender, or red gums
• Taste of infection in the mouth

Why treatment helps

✔ Removes bacteria below the gums
✔ Reduces gum inflammation
✔ Stops progression of gum disease
✔ Restores fresh, healthy breath

Healthy gums = fresh breath.
