Laser Gum Treatment

Laser gum treatment can address various gum issues, including gum disease, oral biopsies, crown lengthening, and cosmetic contouring. Dr. Patel uses advanced laser technology to offer less invasive treatment with quicker recovery times. The procedure typically involves minimal bleeding, no stitches, and may require a local anesthetic. Post-treatment, patients may experience some soreness and swelling, requiring a soft food diet. Insurance coverage varies, and Dr. Patel’s office will help verify benefits and offer financing options for those without insurance.

Periodontal Disease

Periodontal disease, ranging from gingivitis to advanced periodontitis, can severely affect your oral health. Dr. Patel offers both nonsurgical and surgical treatments, including scaling, root planing, antibiotics, gum grafts, and laser surgery. Early detection during routine exams is key to preventing progression. Treatment varies based on the severity, with recovery time depending on the procedure. Insurance coverage varies by treatment, and Dr. Patel’s office will help you navigate costs and financing options to ensure you receive the care you need. Regular follow-ups and good oral hygiene are essential to maintain gum health.

Scaling and Root Planing

If you have developed symptoms of gum (periodontal) disease, a regular cleaning might not be sufficient enough to help. The earliest stage of gum disease, gingivitis, is typically treated with scaling and root planing (SRP). This is a simple procedure performed by experienced dentist Dr. Sangiv I. Patel to help eliminate periodontal disease by removing built-up plaque and tartar from the underneath the gumline. Using special tools, an SRP treatment at Dr. Patel’s private practice, Sangiv I. Patel, D.D.S., PA, cleans under the gumline and smooths the teeth to prevent future buildup. If you are concerned about your gums, learn more about SRP at our innovative facility in Melbourne, FL.
