Advanced gum disease treatment that protects your smile and overall health — providing comprehensive periodontal care with a gentle touch.
Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, is a serious infection that damages the soft tissue and bone supporting your teeth. At Rappaport Dental in Jacksonville, we understand that gum health is fundamental to your overall wellbeing. Research shows that periodontal disease is linked to heart disease, diabetes, and other systemic health conditions, making treatment essential for both your oral and general health.
Our holistic approach to periodontal care addresses not just the symptoms but the underlying causes of gum disease. We provide comprehensive treatment options that restore gum health while considering how your oral health impacts your entire body. Early intervention is key to preventing tooth loss and protecting your overall health.
We offer personalized treatment plans for all stages of gum disease, from early gingivitis to advanced periodontitis. Our approach combines traditional therapies with innovative techniques to restore your gum health effectively.

Healthy gums don’t bleed. If you notice bleeding during brushing or flossing, it’s often the first sign of gingivitis that requires professional attention.
Chronic bad breath or a bad taste in your mouth can indicate bacterial infection below the gum line that needs treatment.
Gums pulling away from teeth expose sensitive root surfaces and create pockets where bacteria thrive, requiring prompt intervention.
