No More Lasers, Deep Cleanings Scaling and Root Planing Every Year Just to Manage Your Gum Disease
Are you tired of undergoing traditional surgical methods or regular deep cleanings to manage gum disease only to experience temporary relief? Our safe, effective, non-surgical gum disease solution is tailored to your individual needs and can provide a lasting cure.
Do You Know Why Many Dentists Often Only Use Deep Cleanings and Laser Treatment?
Many dental offices suggest repetitive deep cleanings and laser treatments to treat gum disease year after year and NEVER diagnose the root cause, not because it’s the most effective long-term treatment option but because often it is what insurance companies are willing to cover.
Your Mouth Is FULL of Bacteria, Viruses and Parasites
Yes these Viruses and Parasites cause severe damage to the gums and other parts of the mouth and prohibit your curing gum disease unless we get to the cause of your gum disease and ELIMINATE it so the issues don’t continually reoccur. Rest assured with our treatment we can understand the various local and systemic factors contributing to this process to prevent and treat gum disease.

Relationship Between Oral Health, Gum Disease, and the Body
- Gum disease is an infectious disease caused by bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can lead to tissue destruction and serious complications like tooth loss, receding gums, and other health issues.
- The release of toxins created by the immune system’s response to the bacteria can affect organs like the heart, liver, and kidneys.
- Understanding this relationship between the oral cavity and the rest of the body is essential for treating gum disease effectively.
The Role of Viruses and Oral Parasites in Gum Disease
- Many patients may experience bleeding gums, ulcerations, and fever without knowing the cause.
- While bacteria are the most common cause of gum disease, viruses and parasites can also contribute.
- The herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) is known for causing cold sores but can also play a role in gum disease.
- Entamoeba gingivalis, Trichomonas tenax, Quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs), and Candida spp. are just some of the oral parasites that can lead to severe damage to the gums and other parts of the mouth.
- Our doctors identify and treat these parasites appropriately, so they don’t keep coming back.
The Role of the Immune System in Gum Disease
- When bacteria, viruses, and parasites settle between teeth and gums, the immune system kicks into action and launches an inflammatory response.
- This process involves the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which can contribute to the progression of gum disease.
- Activation of matrix metalloproteinase and osteoclasts can also play a role in this destructive process.
The Relationship Between Oral Parasites and Maturing Dental Plaque
- Bacteria in dental plaque can lead to irritation and inflammation of the gums, providing a hospitable environment for parasites to thrive.
- This can result in destructive periodontal disease, allowing the parasites to dominate the area around the teeth and gums.
- It is difficult to eradicate these parasites once they’ve established themselves.
- Therefore, it is crucial to understand the local and systemic factors that contribute to gum disease to prevent and treat it effectively.
