When it comes to oral health, having healthy gums is just as important as having healthy teeth. Unfortunately, however, our gums often don’t receive the attention they deserve. Tens of thousands of Americans suffer from gum disease, and they might not recognize it until the infection becomes severe. Our full time periodontist, Dr. Ann-Marie O’Connor, and other members of our staff are dedicated to helping you keep periodontal disease at bay. Learn more about how to spot gum disease and discover our treatment options here.
If you have noticed your gums shrinking, exposing more of your teeth, you may be experiencing gum recession. Not only do receding gums change the look of your smile, but they can be painful as your teeth become more sensitive to hot or cold–and, if left untreated, gum recession can lead to lost teeth. At CITIDental High Street, we offer treatment to reverse the effects of gum recession.
Scaling & Root Planing
Gum disease starts with bacteria that work their way below the gumline to compromise the stability of your teeth. We offer scaling and root planing, an in-depth cleaning procedure that removes the harmful bacteria from below your gum line.

Gum Grafting
In some cases, surgery is required to restore lost or receding gums. If your gums have undergone recession or resorption, or if you’re looking for dental implants, gum grafting may be right for you.
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are used to help protect those hard to reach places on the surfaces of your molars from damage and decay. Dental sealants literally seal out food debris and bacteria that can cause cavities. They are a simple technique to keep your teeth healthy and whole.
