Discover the Power of Healthy & Beautiful Gums
During your consultation, Dr. Roderick will discuss treatment options to optimize your gum health. You may need gum disease treatment, which involves a deep cleaning known as scaling and root planing. This nonsurgical approach eliminates harmful bacteria, removes plaque and tartar below the gumline, and smooths root surfaces to encourage healthy gum reattachment. This care is crucial for restoring and maintaining your gum health.
We also offer advanced treatments to enhance your smile's appearance. These procedures include gum reshaping to create a more balanced and symmetrical gumline. For patients with a gummy smile, you can remove excess gum tissue, revealing more of your natural tooth structure. These cosmetic treatments improve the aesthetics of your smile and contribute to better oral health by creating a more maintainable gum contour.
Do Good for Your Smile
Your gums play an essential part in the health and appearance of your smile. When your gums are healthy, they offer a strong foundation for your teeth and protect them from harmful bacteria. The beauty of your gums can impact the overall appearance of your smile. Uneven, excessive, or receding gums can create a disproportionate or unhealthy look.
No matter which treatments you pursue, you can opt for sedation to eliminate your anxiety. We will review which type of sedation is ideal for you based on your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cosmetic and Periodontal Gum Treatments
Is gum reshaping painful?
We do everything we can to make this treatment (and our many other treatments) as pain-free as they can be. We offer local anesthetic along with three levels of dental sedation to block pain during your procedure. We'll also advise you on what to do as you recover, so you have as little pain as possible.
How much does gum reshaping cost?
Each patient is unique and every case is different, so it is hard to give an exact price on your gum reshaping procedure. We encourage you to come into our office for a consultation so we can examine you and develop a treatment plan. Then we will be able to give you a price on your treatment, and you'll have the information you need to make a good decision.
What causes gum disease?
Gum disease, also called periodontal disease, is an infection caused by bacteria in your mouth. Bacteria form a clear, sticky film called plaque that builds up around your gumline, leading to inflamed and infected gums. Left untreated, the infection causes your gums to separate from teeth, creating "pockets" where more bacteria accumulate. In advanced stages of gum disease, the infection spreads from your gums to the bone that supports your teeth. Your teeth will loosen and possibly fall out.
