What Is Periodontitis?

Periodontitis is a serious form of gum disease that affects the tissues supporting your teeth. If left untreated, it can lead to gum recession, bone loss, and even tooth loss. At Stubbs Dental, our periodontal specialists provide advanced care to stop the progression of gum disease and restore your oral health.

Unlike a standard dental cleaning, gum disease treatment requires more specialized care. Our team uses proven methods like deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) to remove harmful bacteria and give your gums a healthier foundation.

How We Treat Gum Disease

Our periodontal disease treatment plans are designed to target the infection at its source and protect your smile for years to come.

Common aspects of periodontal cleaning include:

  • Dental scaling – Removing plaque and tartar from above and below the gum line to reduce infection and inflammation.

  • Root planing – Smoothing rough root surfaces so gums can reattach securely and prevent bacteria from returning.

  • Deep teeth cleaning – A thorough cleaning that goes beyond routine care, especially effective for managing gum disease.

  • Periodontal maintenance – Regular follow-up cleanings to keep gum disease under control and stop it from advancing.

3 Reasons We Recommend

Greater Stability

Traditional removable dentures are held in place by natural suction or with the help of denture adhesive, but they can still slip and fall out. Because All-on-X implants are anchored in the jawbone, the dentures they support are never at risk of moving around. While traditional dentures must be removed each night to let the gums rest, All-on-X dentures stay securely in your mouth at all times. You'll never have to be without your smile again.

Better Oral Health

Unlike removable dentures, All-on-X implants and dentures replace teeth from root to crown. This is crucial for your oral health, as your tooth roots provide stimulation to keep your jaw healthy and strong. Without that stimulation, the jawbone will inevitably atrophy, which can lead to issues including an aged appearance, dental shifting, and further tooth loss. Implants are the only treatment that can prevent this atrophy.

Long Term Solution

In most cases, removable dentures should be replaced every five to seven years. Our All-on-X dental implant dentures, however, are made of zirconia, the strongest material on the market, and can last a lifetime with proper care and regular dental checkups.

 

It will change your life!

"I wish I hadn't waited over a year to make a decision. Don't wait, don't hesitate. It will change your life. I can smile again, I feel pretty again."

Why All-on-X Dental Implants?

Full Arch Replacement

Completely restore your upper, lower, or both arches of teeth with the transformative All-on-X dental implant procedure, renewing your smile, functionality, and confidence.

Cost Effective

One of the biggest advantages of the All-on-X dental implant method is its cost-effectiveness compared to traditional implants for a full arch. This approach requires fewer implants to secure a permanent denture and often eliminates the need for preliminary procedures like bone grafting, saving you time and money.

Fast Forward to Finals

Enjoy faster treatment with fewer appointments and a quicker recovery, with final Zirconia teeth delivered in as little as 24 hours. Unlike other providers, where the process can take up to 12 months, you can start smiling and eating confidently within weeks.

Are You Ready to

An Alternative Implant Technique

Zygomatic Implants

Zygomatic implants are a special type of dental implant that anchors into the cheekbone instead of the jawbone. They’re designed for patients who don’t have enough bone in their upper jaw for traditional implants, often due to bone loss after missing teeth for many years. This advanced option creates a strong, stable foundation for a full set of upper teeth.

Here’s how they work and why they matter:

  • Anchored in the cheekbone: Unlike traditional implants placed in the jawbone, zygomatic implants are secured in the cheekbones, which stay strong even after tooth loss.
  • No bone grafting required: This approach avoids the need for complex bone grafting procedures, even in cases of major jawbone recession.
  • Safe and stable foundation: The cheekbone provides strong, lasting support for your new teeth, helping restore both function and confidence.
  • Comfort-first care: The procedure is done under full anesthesia, so you can rest easy while our team handles everything with care.
  • A second chance at a real smile: Zygomatic implants are changing lives for patients who were once told they had no options left.

At Stubbs Dental, we believe no one should be turned away from a confident smile. We’re here to explore every possibility with you.
