PERIODONTAL TREATMENT

The secret to having healthy teeth is giving your gums the proper maintenance. Healthy gums are essential to maintain strong teeth and a beautiful smile. This is why we recommend getting a complete dental checkup every six months, including gum disease treatment when necessary.

Gum disease is more common than you might think. It actually affects millions of Americans. At some point in life, everyone has suffered bad breath, pain,and bleeding. Gum disease, or periodontal disease, can lead to not only tooth loss, but it is also associated with diabetes and heart disease.

Indication Of Gum Disease

You could be a patient for gum disease without even realizing. Most periodontal issues are silent and you do not even know when you have them until the disease has reached an advanced state.

These are some indications of gum disease that require periodontal treatment:

Red and swollen gums
Painful gums or discomfort while chewing
Bleeding gums or with pus
Receding gums
Heightened tooth sensitivity
Chronic bad breath
Mouth sores
Change in bite

If you have one or more of these symptoms, you should visit your dentist as soon as possible. Book an appointment with Dr. Thompson so that he can early detect any potential condition and uproot it. Millions of people out there are suffering from gum disease and they don’t even know it. This infection can lead to tooth loss if not treated on time.

Win Over Gum Disease

When you first visit our office, Dr. Thompson will physically examine you searching for any indication of periodontal disease. If he finds that you need gum disease treatment, we will perform a procedure known as root planing and scaling.

The gingival pockets are bacteria’s favorite place to live so we examine those at once. We might suggest a better oral hygiene and some antibiotics to improve your dental health.

When gum disease is detected early, it gets fixed really easily. Treatment is really comfortable at Scottsdale Dental Center. If you are suffering from a more severe form of periodontal disease, we apply other procedures:

Gum grafting
Periodontal surgery
Tooth removal

Dr. Thompson will sit down with you to discuss the most appropriate procedure for your particular case.

Call the office you'll be glad you did!

Dawn was very nice and perfissional. Dr. Thompson is always great. I didn't even know he was done.Great place

Since you asked, I would like to have warm water on my sensitive teeth. When the cold water would hit that sensitive tooth it would almost bring me out of that chair.

I would strongly recommend this dentist to anyone who needs to have dental work done!

I've been going to Dr. Thompson for over 10 years. Everyone is very nice. My wait times are are usually short. And Tracey takes good care of me. I always enjoy my visits.

Highly recommended, because they treated me so well for being a first time client. Very comfortable setting and comforting team!

All the staff is wonderful

Pam needs more time to work on her golf game!

Julie is a terrible receptionist I never got a call back from Dr.Thompson that I ask for email Julie release forms for the other dentist she never called for records.another call I ask to speak to Raven the assistant would not give her the phone never got a return call I always call the office Julie lies every time saying she did the request she lie every time she open up her mouth she is really bad for the business and she SUCKS! I will not waste my time coming from Goodyear to be mistreated I hate that Donna Jones referred me I would definitely not refer anyone to this office. I will tell Donna to be more careful about sending referrals. The icing on the cake called again this morning Julie lies again saying she sent me a email this morning never got it now she is saying they not taken any more appointments until the middle of the summer liesssssss! I made appointment the first of January I got to see the dentist in two days now you are to busy I hope that Dr Thompson read this

I was really hoping to have all my dental work done in one location including intravenous sedation. But other than that, my visit was a very good experience.

I was terrified of going to the dentist and had not seen a dentist in over 17 years, due to a previous traumatic experience. Dr. Thompson and his staff did everything they could do to keep me as comfortable as possible, and made the experience a positive one. Dr. Thompson was funny and kind, and I look forward to my next visit.

I have always enjoyed being part of this office. They have always made me feel warm and welcome. They are vey kind and explain in detail what is going on. I feel very humbled and honored to have the chance to have such a speical group of people who have helped take care of my dental health. I would recommend this office over and over. They are some of the most amazing people. thank you always!!

Everyone was great, I felt welcomed the minute I came in, which was quite refreshing. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting everyone, you have a terrific office staff!

All are wonderful-Dr. Thompson-Elisa-Tracy-Raven-

Both the recipience and Tracy were wonderful

I have been going to EV Dental care since 2001. Dr. Thompson is a wonderful dentist. He is friendly and very patient. He is also knowledgable about the latest dental treatments and innovations. He understands and strives to meet each individual dental need. Tracy the hygienist is great. She always makes me feel comfortable. She is very gentle and does her best not to cause any unnecessary discomfort. Like most people, I don't enjoy going to the dentist, but since it is very important to go, my visits are always less stressful due to Dr. Thompson and his wonderful staff. Going to EV Dental care is liking going to see friends.

Kimber is great! Efficient, patient, friendly and professional. All of the staff is always fantastic, and I am constantly recommending people to your office. Unfortunately, since I work in Chandler, most of my colleagues choose to go to a dentist close to home, but I'm still pushing your office! Dr. Thompson is the best and nicest dentist I've ever had.

Dr. Thompson is the best. What I love about Dr Thompson is that he makes you feel like family.

The entire staff was very friendly and thorough. A special thanks to the financial services representative for making my care plan possible.

Everything was great as always

Awesome service as always.

Nice atmosphere. Friendly staff, and professional. What more can anyone ask?

I have been a patient of Dr. Thompson's for nearly 2 decades and I will never leave. His office is wonderful, clean, and the staff is just a great. Dr. Thompson is kind and understanding of dental phobias and strives to make his patients comfortable. I have referred numerous friends who have all had a wonderful experience with the office.

Best dental office I've ever been to

All 5 members of my family have been patients of Dr. Thompson for approx. 16 years. We wouldn't trust anyone else with our dental care. The staff is caring, professional and always make you feel at ease. I recommend this office to anyone!

Dr. ronald thompson was realy nice and genuanly showed care and concern to my dental needs he did a great job. thank you verry much.

I have been going to Dr. Ronald Thompson for over ten years and have nothing but good things to say about his dental practice.

Always a pleasant experience. Staff is friendly and genuinely caring

I am always pleased with what you have done for June and for me.

Dr. Thompson's office is beautiful and his staff is extremely helpful and kind. Dr. Thompson was quick and efficient and was able to extract my daughter's teeth with minimal discomfort. We were very pleased with our experience.

Dr. Thompson always takes his time to understand what's going on and make sure that concerns are met. I knew I had a sensitive tooth bothering me but for a few x-rays shows nothing. He insisted on a few more and we found a tiny cavity that got caught early. The staff is very friendly and personable, they even helped me figure out my insurance. Definitely a practice that left me smiling.

Tracy is the most beautiful proffessional and glamorous dental hygienist. She always does an amazing job with my cleaning for the past 15 years.

The office visit was great. the staff and Dr. Thompson made us feel really comfortable, and made sure we understood what was going on.

Dr. T and his staff are professional and prompt. And when there was a question with my insurance, they handled it with courtesy and effectiveness. Originally I took my daughter here before deciding to move my dental services to them. Best decision I made.

I'm very happy with your service everybody was really nice thank you very much great service the best ever

Great appointment, as usual. I wouldn't dream of taking my family anywhere else!

Fantastic! I really enjoy the whole staff. Everyone is very friendly and helpful.

Super-amazing! Dr. Thompson is awesome...I started going to him when I was 17, and I'm now in mid 40's.

Another appointment of EXCELLENT service and quality - from Donna at the front desk to Traci, an expert at teeth cleaning, followed up by a thorough exam by Dr. Thompson! Their friendliness puts you at east from the moment you walk into the door and continues until you leave! I have recommended Dr. Thompson and Traci to many friends, family members, and fellow employees! Thank you once again for top notch customer service and quality work!

Ashley is awesome, attractive woman all around. Couldnt choose a better place

I know a lot of people including myself are not thrilled about going to the dentist. This dentist is kind attentive to your needs and very sociable They Know You by name best dentist I've ever been to

I avoid dentists as much as possible but from my call to make appt to procedure they all have made me feel comfortable and relaxed. So happy to have finally found a dentist I'm comfortable going to.

Dr. Thompson and his staff are all very friendly and know what they are doing! They take time with you so you know that when you are in the chair or at the check out/in counter you are their number one priority! Great service with a fantastic smile every time!

Everyone was so efficient and professional. Dr. Thompson took my age into consideration so that I wouldn't be having procedures that would drag it out and were really not necessary for my dental health. My.teeth will still look good. I will add more when I have the work done. The price estimate was really reasonable. The staff was wonderfully supportive.

As always the staff and Dr. Thompson are great!. I've been a patient there for a Long, long time and plan to be a patient for another long, long time! The staff is always courteous and always greet you when you enter the office. I love you guys!!!

As always the service was Great! I learn something new every time with Tracy. She is professional and friendly! The warm atmosphere makes you feel comfortable and relaxed. Doc your the Best!

Thank you to the great team at East Valley Dental Care for making my visits so comfortable. I recommend your office to all of my family and friends because of the professional and caring service I receive. Thank you for helping me smile.

I feel that going to the dentist is stressful because the hygienist might find some unexpected problem with my teeth or gums. However, even when a simple cleaning has turned into something more, both staff and Dr. Thompson always make me feel at ease and comfortable. My mouth is in good hands at East Valley Dental.

5 stars great juob friendly staff and gentle dental work. I can go to the dentist now and not fear the pain great job

Excellent and friendly service as always.

Everybody is really super nice, Tracy and Mr. Thompson were great at what they were doing. I highly recommend this place to go for the Dentist.
