Periodontics & Gum Care in Santa Monica: FAQs

Who does periodontics & gum care in Santa Monica?

None of the Santa Monica offices we track have recent reviews that specifically describe periodontics & gum care yet, which is not the same as nobody offering it. Most general practices handle it or refer well, so call the top rated Santa Monica offices above and ask directly, or start with the nearby practices whose patients do describe this treatment.

Do I really need a deep cleaning, or am I being upsold?

A legitimate deep cleaning recommendation comes with evidence: pocket depth measurements of 4mm+ (ask to see the numbers), bleeding on probing, or bone loss visible on X rays. If an office recommends one without showing you measurements, or on your very first visit ever, a second opinion is reasonable and common.

Can gum disease be reversed?

Gingivitis, the early stage, is fully reversible with professional cleaning and good home care. Periodontitis, where bone loss has started, can't be reversed, but it can be stopped and managed for life with treatment and maintenance cleanings every 3, 4 months.

What does periodontics & gum care cost in Santa Monica?

Westside offices tend to sit near the top of those ranges while offices further east and in the Valley often come in lower.
