Restore Your Gum Health with High Quality Periodontal Services

We offer the services you need to address gum disease, from scaling and root planing to gum surgery.


Treating the Infection and Damage of Periodontal Disease

If you have bleeding gums or suffer from gum recession, we can help. Dr. Carolina Giraldo offers a wide range of treatments to address your gum disease as well as procedures to repair the damage it has caused.
 
Gum Disease Treatment in Norwalk, CT

Scaling and Root Planing

Often referred to as a deep cleaning, scaling and root planing is recommended to treat periodontitis. This minimally invasive procedure presents an alternative to more aggressive gum surgery.

Osseous/Flap Surgery

Osseous surgery is typically recommended if your infection is too far advanced to respond to scaling and root planing. During this gum surgery, Dr. Giraldo will access the roots of your teeth and underlying bone, cleaning and smoothing these areas to repair the damage caused by gum disease. She will also trim excess gum tissue, reshaping the gum line to encourage reattachment.

Gingivectomy

If scaling and root planing does not control your infection, you may need a gingivectomy. With this procedure, Dr. Giraldo will remove diseased tissue and reshape the gums around your teeth in order to reduce the deeper pockets that formed as a result of the bacteria.

Periodontal Maintenance

After you have been treated for periodontal disease, you will need periodontal maintenance visits every three to four months. At these appointments, our hygienist will clean your teeth both above and below the gum line, removing plaque and bacteria before they can affect your oral health. We also closely monitor your periodontal pocket depths at these visits.
