Gum Disease Treatments
Scaling and Root Planing
For early-stage gum disease, scaling and root planing is a deep cleaning treatment that removes plaque and tartar from below the gumline. This procedure helps to smooth the roots of the teeth, making it more difficult for bacteria to attach and preventing further damage to the gums.
LANAP® Laser Therapy & Periodontal Surgery
When gum disease has caused significant damage, our LANAP® laser therapy and periodontal surgery offer a powerful solution. LANAP® uses advanced laser technology to remove diseased tissue while promoting the regeneration of healthy gums and bone. This minimally invasive surgery helps restore both gum health and bone structure, ensuring long-term stability and reducing recovery time compared to traditional surgical methods.
Expert care from Dr. Adriana Torena, DMD, PC
With over two decades of experience, and one of Connecticut’s few certified LANAP® laser dentists, Dr. Adriana Torena combines advanced technology with compassionate care to ensure your treatment is as comfortable as it is effective.

Gum Disease FAQs
What causes gum disease?
Gum disease is typically caused by a variety of factors, including:
- Inadequate oral hygiene
- Smoking, vaping, and tobacco
- An unhealthy diet high in sugar
- Genetics
- Certain medications and other health issues
What are the signs of gum disease?
Common signs include red, swollen, or bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, receding gums, and loose teeth. If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s important to see our Bridgeport gum disease dentist for evaluation and treatment.
Can gum disease affect my health?
Yes. Untreated periodontal disease is shown to cause systemic health issues. This disease has been linked to diabetic complications, strokes, and heart disease. To protect yourself, visit us regularly for an exam and cleaning.
Can I prevent gum disease on my own?
The bacteria that cause gum disease are often difficult to remove by brushing and flossing alone. Regular dental exams and cleanings help catch and stop gum disease in its earliest stages. This is always preferred because it allows for simple, non-invasive treatment options.
Is gum disease reversible?
In its early stages (gingivitis), gum disease can often be reversed with proper oral hygiene and professional cleanings. Once it progresses to periodontal disease, it requires more advanced treatments to manage and prevent further damage.
