Periodontal Therapy

Protect your gums with advanced periodontal therapy.

Royal Esthetics Laser Dentistry

Contrary to popular belief, losing teeth is not an inevitable part of aging. With proper oral hygiene and regular professional cleanings and checkups, you can often keep your natural teeth for life. This not only involves caring for the teeth themselves but also for the surrounding structures—gums and bone. Gum disease, a bacterial infection, threatens these vital supporting tissues. That’s why dental professionals are vigilant in detecting early signs of trouble, even before symptoms are noticeable to patients. If issues are found, periodontal therapy may be recommended to restore oral health.

Periodontal therapy can take different forms, but the goal is always to restore healthy tissues and prevent further damage. If left untreated, gum disease can spread to the bone supporting your teeth, potentially leading to tooth loss in severe cases.

Periodontal Therapy Procedures:

  • Scaling and Root Planing: These deep-cleaning techniques are the first line of defense against gum disease. Plaque and tartar (calculus) are removed from beneath the gumline using hand scalers and/or ultrasonic instruments.
  • Gum Grafting: In cases of lost gum tissue, healthy tissue from another area of the mouth or laboratory-processed donor tissue may be used to protect tooth roots.
  • Periodontal Plastic Surgery: This type of surgery reshapes the gum tissues to improve their appearance and health, providing a more pleasing aesthetic outcome.
  • Periodontal Laser Treatment: Using lasers to remove diseased gum tissue offers several benefits over traditional surgery, such as reduced discomfort and minimal gum shrinkage.
  • Crown Lengthening Surgery: This procedure exposes more of the tooth’s structure, which can be necessary for cosmetic purposes (to make the teeth appear longer and reduce a “gummy” smile) or to help secure a new dental crown.

Both Dr. Clarke and Dr. Ellis before him provided the finest in dental care. After having my first visit with Dr. Reyal, I am completely satisfied with the results and am fully confident that Dr.Reyal will continue the outstanding level of dental care received in the past.As stated in the past, "Friendly and professional": this described Dr. Clarke and his staff, and this continues with Dr. Reyal's team. Cannot see any chance of switching dentists.

I saw Dr. Reyal for the second time this past week to finish placing a crown on a molar. This was a difficult procedure due to the location being hard to reach and the configuration of the tooth itself. Dr. Reyal worked hard to make sure it was a comfortable fit and would work for me. I think it took a certain amount of artistry as well as persistence and I thank her for that. She does an especially good job explaining the what and why of what she is doing. As always, Marley is such a gem and I value her supportive care. Last but not least, Dr. Reyal and her team have been responsive to suggestions about how to improve communication with their patients and I was glad to see signs clarifying payment options.

Highly recommend!! This dental office is under new management and my nephew had an appointment with Dr. Ruba Reyal and I can say i was shocked by him telling me that he wanted to come back to a dental office. She was nothing but helpful and kind. And the front desk was super polite. Thank you Dr. Reyal, you definitely will see me back for a check up.

I have grown very comfortable with Dr Kelly Clarke's office and staff. Going to the dentist has never been my favorite thing but I have been a patient here for a few years now and I would not want to change! They are so friendly and helpful.

I’m a new patients and I was nervous as to what to expect. I was so pleased with how I was welcomed when I arrived I had no wait time and the staff was friendly. Dr Clark examined my tooth I had broke said we can take care of this and how he would do the work. Now I get a crown and am thankful I was referred to this group.

I have been going to Laser for two years now. Admittedly, the excuse of the pandemic kept me from the dentist for far too long. Dr. Kelly and staff got me caught up with no guilt or oversell in sight. Everyone from the front desk, to hygienist, to Doc are wonderful and friendly. Patient for life!
