Take Control of Your Gum Health with Non-Surgical Biological Periodontal Therapy
Gum disease, a common oral condition, affects millions of Americans. Also known as periodontal disease, gum disease is a “silent thief” of your smile, often starting with seemingly innocuous symptoms. Left untreated, this progressive dental condition can cause tooth loss and, worse yet, systematic infections.
Don’t let gum disease ruin your smile. Carolinas BioHealth Dentistry offers holistic, non-surgical periodontal treatment to stop the progression of gum disease. If you suspect gum disease in Clemmons, North Carolina, schedule an appointment with Dr. Tyler Wynne for effective and conservative treatment.
Should I be concerned with gum disease?
Excellent oral health goes beyond a dazzling smile—it’s about nurturing a well-maintained mouth. Regular dental cleanings and at-home dental care are the bedrock of optimal oral hygiene. However, neglecting your oral care routine can lead to the formation of plaque and tartar in your mouth, attracting bacteria that cause gum disease.
Gum disease develops in stages. The earliest form is gingivitis, which manifests as swollen, tender, and bleeding gums. If gingivitis is not treated, it develops into periodontitis, which results in gum recession due to the formation of deep periodontal pockets between the gums and teeth. Over time, the bacteria destroy the periodontal ligaments and the bone supporting the teeth, leading to tooth loss.
How is gum disease treated?
Treating gum disease doesn’t have to involve surgical treatments. Our office uses the most conservative approach to manage and reverse gum disease, especially when detected early. Your treatment option depends on the severity of your disease. Gingivitis—the earliest form of gum disease—is usually reversible with standard cleanings and diligent oral hygiene.
However, if your gum disease has progressed beneath the gum line, you may require deep dental cleaning, which involves the following two procedures:
- Scaling
Routine dental cleanings can’t go deeper than 3mm, so they are only recommended for gingivitis. Advanced gum disease creates periodontal pockets that are more than 3mm deep. Scaling uses special tools to remove bacterial toxins and calcified plaque from the deep periodontal pockets to the root surfaces.
As a biological dentist, Dr. Wynne uses minimally invasive techniques to administer root debridement. We use ozonated gas, water, or oil to remove toxins from the deep periodontal pockets. As a powerful oxidizing agent, ozone effectively eliminates bacteria and promotes healing in the gums. Unlike manual instruments, ozone therapy penetrates deep, even in minute spaces where manual tools can’t reach.
- Root planing
Root planing also encourages healthy attachment of gum tissues to your teeth.

I came in, I was referred to Dr. Wynne and his office by my integrative doctor. I’m a cancer patient in remission, and I was advised to have my mercury fillings removed. I had quite a few mercury fillings.
So I am just amazed at how much better I feel since they’ve been removed.
I wasn’t expecting that, but just coming here, I felt so comfortable. I was made comfortable every time I came in for a visit, and I came in for several visits because again, I had quite a few to be removed, and I also had my front teeth redesigned, so I had those capped. Everything just went beautifully. I couldn’t be more pleased with the attention, the kindness, and the caring that I have received here. The people here are wonderful. They’re very professional. My product, my result, is beautiful, absolutely beautiful. I couldn’t have asked for better. I’m very grateful to be a patient here and continue to be a patient here.
