Periodontal therapy in Squamish refers to professional treatments designed to address gum diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis. These treatments are essential for preventing tooth loss, supporting systemic health, and helping residents maintain a healthy lifestyle in an active coastal community. At Parkside Dental Group, this therapy involves a range of solutions tailored to individual needs, including:

• Non-invasive gum therapy: This often begins with scaling and root planing, which is a deep cleaning process that uses advanced tools like ultrasonic scalers to remove plaque and tartar from below the gumline.
• Antimicrobial treatments: These are used following deep cleanings to control bacteria and reduce inflammation.
• Restorative procedures: For more advanced cases involving gum recession, doctors perform gum grafting to restore tissue and protect exposed tooth roots.
• Preventive maintenance: Long-term care strategies include routine checkups and cleanings to sustain oral health.

Local clinics like Parkside Dental Group offer these services under one roof, providing direct insurance billing and participating in the Canada Dental Care Plan (CDCP) to ensure care is accessible for families and eligible residents.
