GUM DISEASE TREATMENT IN AIRDRIE
Gum disease is one of the most common oral health issues among adults—yet it is also one of the most treatable when detected early. At Kingsview Dental, we offer gentle, effective non-surgical periodontal therapy designed to stop gum disease, restore gum health and protect your smile for years to come.
Serving Airdrie since 2009, our experienced team provides advanced gum care for patients across Kingsview, Kings Heights, Ravenswood, Lanark, Meadowbrook, Thorburn, Big Springs, and surrounding areas including Coopers Crossing, Bayside, Reunion, Canals, Sagewood, Midtown and more.
If you’ve noticed bleeding gums, bad breath or gum sensitivity, we’re here to help with personalized periodontal treatment.
GENTLE, EFFECTIVE NON-SURGICAL GUM THERAPY
Non-surgical periodontal therapy—also known as scaling and root planing—is the gold-standard treatment for early to moderate gum disease. This gentle, non-surgical approach removes plaque and calculus (tartar) from below the gumline and smooths tooth root surfaces, allowing the gums to heal and reattach more effectively.
At Kingsview Dental, gum disease treatment is provided under the care of Dr. Kinjal Patel, using modern techniques designed to maximize comfort and long-term results. This therapy helps:
Stop bacterial infection
Reduce gum inflammation and bleeding
Prevent tooth loss
Improve bad breath
Support long-term gum and oral health
When combined with good home care and regular dental checkups, non-surgical gum therapy is safe, comfortable, and highly effective—often preventing the need for more advanced treatment.
If you’re experiencing signs of gum disease, don’t wait. Call Kingsview Dental today or book your periodontal consultation online to restore your gum health and protect your smile.
TESTIMONIALS
WHAT OUR PATIENTS SAY ABOUT US
WHAT IS GUM DISEASE?
Gum disease (periodontal disease) is an infection of the tissue and bone supporting your teeth.
Gingivitis
The earliest and most reversible stage. Symptoms include redness, swelling and bleeding when brushing.
Periodontitis
Gums pull away from teeth, forming pockets that harbor bacteria. Bone loss begins.
Advanced Periodontal Disease
Deep pockets, significant bone loss and loose teeth. Without treatment, tooth loss occurs.
Early detection is key—which is why regular dental exams are essential.
SIGNS THAT YOU NEED GUM DISEASE TREATMENT
Bleeding Gums
A sign of inflammation or gingivitis—not “normal.”
Bad Breath (Halitosis)
Caused by bacteria under the gums.
Gum Recession
Gums pulling away from the teeth can expose roots and increase sensitivity.
Loose or Shifting Teeth
A sign of advanced bone loss requiring urgent treatment.
Other symptoms include swollen gums, pain when chewing and puffy gum tissue.
OUR NON-SURGICAL PERIODONTAL THERAPY PROCESS
Comprehensive Gum Evaluation
We measure gum pockets, assess inflammation, review digital X-rays and determine disease stage.
Scaling (Deep Cleaning)
We remove hardened tartar and bacterial deposits from below the gumline.
Root Planing
The tooth roots are smoothed so gums can heal and reattach.
Antibacterial Irrigation
In some cases, antibacterial rinses or localized antibiotics may be used to control infection.
Ongoing Periodontal Maintenance
Patients with gum disease typically require cleanings every 3–4 months to prevent relapse.
