Gun Disease Therapy

Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is the leading cause of tooth loss among adults in the United States and poses serious risks to your overall health. Studies show that nearly 80% of adults over the age of 35 have some form of gum disease—many without even realizing it. If left untreated, gum disease can contribute to more severe health problems, including heart disease, diabetes, stroke, respiratory conditions, and complications during pregnancy.

At #1 West Park Dental in San Jose, we take gum health seriously. As the 2025 winner of Best Dentist in Silicon Valley, our team is known for providing advanced periodontal care in a calm, compassionate setting. We offer a full range of treatment options to manage gum disease and restore your oral health before proceeding with any other dental work.

Our comprehensive periodontal therapy services include:

• Charting and Diagnosis
  A thorough periodontal examination to assess the extent of gum disease and establish a personalized treatment plan.

• Scaling and Root Planing
  A deep cleaning procedure that removes plaque and tartar from below the gum line and smooths the tooth root to promote healing.

• Non-Surgical Arresting Therapy
  Targeted antibiotic treatment applied directly to affected areas to stop infection and inflammation.

• Periodontal Surgery
  When necessary, surgical procedures are performed to reduce pocket depth, regenerate lost tissue, or improve access for long-term maintenance.

These treatments not only stop the progression of gum disease but also help preserve your natural teeth, improve breath, and support your long-term health.

If you’re experiencing symptoms like bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, or gum recession, don’t wait. Schedule a periodontal consultation today and experience why so many San Jose families trust #1 West Park Dental for expert gum care.
