Gum Disease Treatment
Bleeding gums may be a sign of gingivitis, an early form of gum disease known as periodontal disease. It is estimated that more than 75% of American adults have some form of gum disease. A highly trained periodontist, Dr. Robert Cain treats bleeding gums through a variety of treatments, depending on your specific condition.
The first is scaling and root planing. This is essentially a deep and thorough cleaning of the pockets between your teeth and gums. This procedure can be done on patients of all ages.
