Gum Disease Treatment
If you visit our Albuquerque dentist for a gum disease treatment in Albuquerque, NM, the first thing we’ll do is ensure your comfort by numbing the inside of your mouth. Then, we will use a state-of-the-art NV Pro 3 dental laser to remove small amounts of your infected gums. Your treatment will be more comfortable and heal faster thanks to this cutting-edge dental technology!
Depending on your situation, we may also need to use special methods called scaling and root planing to clean tooth decay from between your gums and tooth roots.
To improve your experience, we can also provide a variety of comfort options, including:
- Soft pillows
- Cozy blankets
- Headphones
And, if you happen to be nervous, we can also help relieve your dental anxiety with dental sedation options.
Common Symptoms Of Gum Disease

- Swollen, tender gums
- Teeth that feel loose
- Persistent bad breath

Uptown Dental is a hidden gem! Nice offices and rooms. Staff at all levels are professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. No one shamed me for not going to the dentist for 4 years. Treatments were painless. Streamlined billing process was done in minutes, including the insurance considerations. I can't recommend them more highly!

What a great 1st visit. I'm new to the area, and even upon calling staff was very friendly. When I arrived staff greeted me and I was taking back shortly after. I had a cleaning done by Kelly who was also friendly and listened to my concerns. Then I met with the Dr, again friendly. Professional and relaxing environment all around. So glad I found this place.

Maya was my hygienist today, and she was professional, gentle and knowledgeable. I had not been for a check up and cleaning since 2020, so was a little nervous. Dr. Martinez was also efficient and thorough through the last final phase of my cleaning. Overall I recommend this dental clinic in Albuquerque! Always a good experience.

I’ve been going to uptown for about 10 years now and I always feel like a valued patient!
Recently I opted to get Invisalign and can’t be happier with the level of effort they take to make sure the results are perfect. The techs and my dentist have taken the time to address my concerns and answer my questions- I always leave feeling confident that I’m getting the best service
Thank you Uptown dental Associates! I won’t go anywhere else!
