Protect Your Health with Advanced Gum Disease Treatments
Gum Disease Threatens Your Health and Your Smile
Why is gum disease such a concern for oral health, general health and smile esthetics? Gum disease is caused by bacterial toxins which can destroy gum tissue, bone and other structures supporting your teeth. Left untreated, gum disease can progress to the point of tooth loss, creating a host of other oral and physical concerns. Recent research also indicates a link between gum disease and systemic health problems, including heart disease, stroke and diabetes, among several others. Seeking gum disease treatment in Stone Mountain, GA, as early as possible helps minimize these effects, arresting the disease process and restoring a healthy, confident smile.

Gum Disease Treatment at Smoke Rise Family, Implants and Cosmetic Dentistry
Dr. Moeti has advanced skills and experience restoring periodontal health through proven gum disease treatment techniques. Dr. Moeti offers the following types of gum disease treatment at our Stone Mountain, GA, practice:
With this non-surgical gum disease treatment, we use special instruments to rid the root surfaces of plaque, tartar and bacterial accumulation. The goal of scaling and root planing is to provide a smooth root surface to which gum tissue can reattach, reduce pocket depths and improve gum health.
BIOLASE WaterLase™ technology can eliminate bacteria and an infection from beneath the gum line. This advanced gum disease treatment also stimulates the body’s natural healing response and encourages regeneration of bone in the jaw.
This traditional approach to gum disease treatment addresses areas of infection deep below the gum line. Dr. Moeti gently retracts the gums in affected areas, gaining open access to remove plaque and tartar deposits as well as smooth defects in the bone caused by bacterial toxins. Gum tissues are then sutured in place to begin the healing phase of care.
The key to maintaining a healthy mouth following gum disease treatment, periodontal maintenance programs include thorough cleanings, exams and management of bacteria. Periodontal maintenance visits occur every three to four months and replace regular hygiene cleanings. We may alternate these visits with regular cleanings when your gum disease treatment is complete.

I have been coming to this practice for over 40 years. I probably don’t need to say anything else. My appointments have been on time and the dentists and hygienists are pleasant and professional. Locations and personnel have changed but my experience has always been good.
