Sensitive gums? How a gentle hygiene visit makes the difference

Bleeding or tender gums during cleaning are common — and avoidable. Technique and technology both play a part.

Sensitivity during cleaning usually comes from inflamed gum tissue rather than the instruments themselves. A light hand and the right tools make a real difference.

Modern tools, lighter touch

Ultrasonic scaling and fine hand instruments remove deposits with far less pressure, and we pace each visit around your comfort.

At home, a soft brush angled toward the gum line and daily interdental cleaning calm tissue within a couple of weeks.
