Gum Disease Treatment in Ogden UT

Periodontal Therapy

Graphic showing how gum disease affects a tooth. Gum disease can destroy your smile, hamper your oral hygiene, and cause bad breath. Fighting it early on is the best way to prevent tooth loss. We offer a number of preventive care techniques, including non-surgical periodontal therapy to help you combat gum disease as efficiently as possible.

Deep Cleanings to Combat Gum Disease

Periodontal disease is a condition that is caused by plaque and tartar buildup under your gums. Because of this, we’ll recommend a series of deep cleanings to create a healthy environment that is easy to maintain – combating symptoms like:

  • Tooth mobility
  • Bone loss and gum recession
  • Bad breath / halitosis
  • Tartar buildup and stain across your smile

How can you know if you have gum disease? “During patient exams, we perform a thorough periodontal assessment and series of x-rays to evaluate gum health – so that tooth loss can be stopped before it starts.”

Adjunctive Services

Graphic showing the progression of gum disease surrounding a tooth. Sometimes, we’re more susceptible to gum disease because of the way our teeth are aligned. Dr. Jeff recalls a 65-year-old patient who was being treated for gum disease, but who was facing treatment difficulties because her crowded teeth made it nearly impossible for her to effectively remove plaque on a daily basis. “Straightening her teeth with Invisalign helped her enjoy better oral hygiene and a healthier smile.” Whatever it takes – we’ll help you get there!

In some situations it may be beneficial to place antibiotic capsules under the gumlines, or place patients on a prescription mouthwash such as chlorhexidine. Dr. Jeff will walk you through his recommendations so that every effort can be made to halt the disease below your gums.

If you’re experiencing signs of periodontal disease or haven’t seen a dentist in several years – please call Torghele Dentistry right away to schedule an evaluation. Complimentary sedation is available for every scheduled procedure – just ask!

Torghele Dentistry has offered pediatric dentistry services for nearly forty years, with children growing up with our team and bringing their kids.

OUR REVIEWS

Heidi H.

I have had great experiences with Torghele Dental, especially with Laila Rahimzadegan the dental hygienist. She is always very thorough with her cleanings and explains all procedures. She has also given me very useful tips that I use daily and couldnt live without. Overall, my dental experience has been superb. I dont dread going to the dentist like I used to.

Jessica W.

Love Torghele dental! Now going to Jeff, because Bob retired. The dental tallents have carried on thru the family. I am pleased and grateful. Someone new to my particular visits is Laila. What a bright and thorough gal. She really knows her stuff. However, often times, more importantly is how kind and sunny she is. She knows just what to say and has a witty sense of humor that makes a person more relaxed and at ease in the chair. She is gentle and conscientious of you the entire time and makes sure not only your teeth are taken care of, but you as a person feel taken care of as well. Great work Torghele dental center! Been going there for twenty something years and wont be changing

Elizabeth D.

My three kids and I would never think of going anywhere else. Everyone in this practice is terrific, friendly and knowledgable. If it was not for Laila, my kids would never be as vigilant about brushing and flossing every day. Laila makes sure that my kids understand the importance of clean teeth, but she does it in a very fun way. Never once in all the years that our family has been going to Torghele Dentistry has there been a negative feeling or experience.

Sierra V.

Ive been going to Torghele since I was a little kid, and I always love it there. Its comfy, homey, professional, and the staff is awesome. The hygienists are very good at establishing rapport and making you feel comfortable. Theres good synergy between Jeff and his staff and it makes you feel welcome. I usually see Laila the hygienist and she is great at making you feel comfortable and making you laugh and creating good conversation. I recommend her! Thank you, Torghele!

Stacey W.

Each time we visit Torghele Dental we are treated with the best care and kindness with our dental work. Dr. Jeff is a wonderful dentist, and his staff are the best around.

Brian H.

Everyone is pleasant and friendly. Appointments start on time. Minimal to no pain while getting work done. Ill never let anybody work on my teeth except Jeff and his team. You will not be disappointed!
