Rebuild Healthy Gums With Advanced Periodontal Care

Gum disease can affect more than just your smile. When left untreated, periodontal problems may contribute to gum recession, loose teeth, discomfort, and damage to the structures that support your teeth. At Total Dental Care, we create customized treatment plans focused on controlling infection, restoring damaged tissue, and helping patients maintain healthy gums through proactive periodontal care.

Our periodontal services include:

  • Scaling and Root Planing - This specialized cleaning removes plaque and hardened buildup beneath the gumline while smoothing the roots of the teeth to help reduce inflammation and bacteria.
  • Periodontal Maintenance - Routine maintenance appointments help protect the gums after treatment and reduce the risk of future periodontal flare-ups.
  • Localized Antibiotic Therapy - Antibiotic treatments may be placed beneath the gums to target bacteria and support the healing process following deep cleanings.
  • Gum Grafting Procedures - Gum grafting can restore lost tissue, improve gum coverage, and help protect exposed tooth roots from sensitivity and decay.
  • Pinhole Gum Recession Treatment - This minimally invasive approach may help reposition gum tissue without traditional incisions or stitches for a more comfortable recovery.
  • Oral Cancer Evaluations - Preventive screenings allow our team to identify abnormalities early and support your long-term oral and overall health.

Our team understands that periodontal treatment can feel intimidating for some patients, which is why we prioritize comfort, communication, and individualized care throughout every visit. We take time to explain treatment recommendations clearly and answer any questions so patients feel confident about their care decisions. If you are searching for a trusted periodontist near Damascus, MD, Total Dental Care is here to help you restore healthier gums and maintain a stronger smile. Contact our office today at 240-261-2671 to schedule your visit.

My family loves Total Dental Care! The staff is super helpful and friendly! They take the time to explain and teach the young ones. They communicate via text occasionally which is much more convenient than getting on the phone sometimes! All good things from this group. They have a client for life. Even my eldest until he aged out of my family insurance came back for his cleanings rather than find one closer to his home!

Extremely friendly yet professional staff especially Brandy who works in scheduling. She has been so helpful to me especially during times when there was difficulty getting my insurer to approve specialty treatments. I would also like to point out all the pleasant conversations I had with Daisha...
