Gum care that treats the cause, not just the symptoms

Gum disease can be quiet at first. A little bleeding when you brush. Breath that won’t stay fresh. Gums that feel tender or look like they’re pulling back. But over time, untreated inflammation can lead to bone loss and loose teeth, sometimes without obvious pain.

Saint City Dental offers St. Paul periodontal treatment designed to stop gum disease in its tracks and help you keep your natural teeth longer. Treatment may include deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) to remove bacteria below the gumline, laser therapy to support healthier tissue, and a patient-centered plan for home care that fits your real routine.

How do you know if I need gum therapy?

Is scaling and root planing the same as treatment for gum disease?

It’s one of the most common starting points, but care may also include laser therapy and maintenance.

Will my gums go back to normal?

Many patients see major improvement with St. Paul periodontal treatment in addition to consistent home care and follow-up visits.

What happens if gum disease is ignored?

It can progress to bone loss and tooth loss, even if your teeth don’t hurt today.

Your Title Goes Here

Been coming to this dentist for 8 years, and I love them. I recently had my first dental issue of my adult life and really felt heard. I had mouth pain after a cavity was filled, and the practice listened and tried to help me. It was such a relief to be heard and helped when I was in pain.
