Scripps Rock Dental Adopts Perio Therapy: A Non-Surgical Gum Treatment

Scripps periodontal specialist employs perio therapy, a non-surgical gum treatment to

treat periodontal disease. Periodontitis—a set of inflammatory diseases affecting the

tissues that surround and support the teeth—if not treated earlier cause serious gum

disorders such as gingivitis, bad taste, wobbly tooth, gum abscesses, coronary artery

disease, and more.

“90% of people with periodontal or gum disease are at risk of diabetes, among other life

threatening conditions including stroke. Still, 30% of people are genetically susceptible

to periodontal diseases” revealed in a recent scientific study by NYU College of

Dentistry.

Perio therapy is proving to be safe and painless. The treatment usually involves a deep

cleaning to disrupt the biofilm or bacterial colonies beneath the gums. This treatment is

done under a local anesthetic, in some cases in conjunction with the use of local

antibiotic agents like Arestin. To get more proven results, the periodontal specialist will

offer a diagnostic DNA test. Through this test they determine the type of bacterial

causing periodontal disease.

“Our patients benefit from the highest technology, state-of-the-art materials and

procedures, and the skill and experience of the doctor and staff. We do everything

possible to insure you the best possible experience. We are committed to preventative

care and want to help you maintain healthy teeth and gums for a lifetime.”

Dr. Anthony Hatch, Dr. Shivi Gupta, and Dr. Paul Luczynski of Scripps Rock Dental are

highly recommended by most patients. The cosmetic dentists at Scripps Rock Dental

also utilize Laser Assisted Periodontal Therapy (LAPT), an amazing breakthrough in

periodontal treatments. The LAPT procedure is highly effective, non-invasive, and FDA-

approved. The family dentists at Scripps Rock Dental proffer a versatile range of

treatments including bonding, digital x-rays, fillings, TMJ treatments, teeth whitening,

root canal therapy, sealants, Invisalign, and more. For new patients they offer teeth

cleaning, exam, and x-rays only for $99.

Those with high blood pressure should always alert their periodontist before starting the

treatment to avoid future complications.
