Gum disease is the leading cause of adult tooth loss but is completely preventable.
Your first visit starts with a thorough exam to assess your gum health. Dr. Huggett will carefully examine your gums and measure the depth of the spaces between your teeth and gums. Digital imaging may be used to help identify signs of gum disease. This personalized evaluation ensures we address any concerns and develop a tailored treatment plan designed to restore your gum health.
If treatment is needed, we’ll walk you through your options, which might include professional cleanings or deeper procedures like scaling and root planing to remove plaque and bacteria. Dr. Huggett’s gentle approach and advanced techniques ensure your treatment is as comfortable and effective as possible. Your comfort is always our priority, and we’ll work to keep you relaxed during every step of the process.
After treatment, we’ll guide you on how to maintain healthy gums through regular brushing, flossing, and routine dental checkups. Dr. Huggett may recommend additional visits to monitor your progress and help you stay on track. With our comprehensive aftercare and focus on education, you’ll have the tools and confidence to keep your gums in top shape.
