What your gums look like beneath the surface matters more than you think 🦷👀

This before and after x-ray shows how scaling and root planing can make a real difference in periodontal health at North Raleigh Periodontics & Implant Center ✨

Scaling and root planing is a non-surgical treatment used to manage gum disease and protect the foundation of your teeth 💗
Unlike a regular cleaning, it targets buildup deep below the gumline where damage often begins

Here’s what’s happening 👇
Scaling removes plaque and hardened calculus from above and below the gums 🧼
Root planing smooths the root surfaces to help the gums heal and reattach 🤍
Local anesthetic keeps the procedure comfortable, and treatment is typically completed in 2–3 visits 😊

What you’re seeing in this x-ray 👇
A cleaner root surface
Reduced buildup beneath the gums
Improved conditions for gum healing and stability ✨

Why it matters 👇
Healthier gums and less inflammation
Prevention of further bone and attachment loss
A stronger, more stable smile long-term 🦷

After treatment, we’ll guide you with a personalized home care routine and may recommend antibiotics to help eliminate remaining bacteria 🪥

We recently hosted a powerful CE course right here at North Raleigh Periodontics and Implant Center 🦷✨ in partnership with the North Carolina Dental Hygienists' Association (Component 4)—and it left a lasting impact.

Led by Amanda Zubricki, a hygienist who is deaf, this experience gave our team firsthand insight into the realities of hearing loss 💬❤️. Through interactive exercises, we heard speech at different levels of impairment—and that final stage? Completely muffled. It was eye-opening in the most important way.

Her story of navigating dentistry while facing discrimination—and showing us how we can better connect with and care for our patients—was incredibly inspiring 🙌

We’re so grateful for our hygienists who continue to learn, grow, and show up for experiences like this through the NCDHA. Their dedication to continuing education means more compassionate, informed care for every patient we serve 💙

Huge thank you to BioGaia for sponsoring and to Sassool for the amazing spread 🥗🍴

And we’re just getting started… 👀
Join us in May for our next CE event:
Gums, Grit, and Growth: Next-Level Periodontal Care 🦷✨ Featuring our very own hygienists, Brittney and Susan, with a hands-on Airflow workshop!

Learning never stops—and we wouldn’t have it any other way 💫

From pasta to purpose 🍝✨ this night was about so much more than great food…

Our amazing hygienist Susan hosted a hands-on Italian cooking class to raise funds for Wake Smiles ❤️ — a nonprofit dedicated to providing dental care for underserved members of our community.

Alongside her son Stephen, Susan led guests through an unforgettable evening of homemade limoncello and spritz 🍋, fresh gnocchi, tomato basil and brown butter sage sauces, bruschetta, and pistachio ice cream 🤌🍨 — all while bringing people together for a powerful cause.

As a board member of Wake Smiles, Susan works alongside local specialists to expand access to care, and thanks to efforts like this, they’re already 2/3 of the way toward their $100K goal 🎯 to add two new treatment rooms and open Saturdays to serve even more patients in need.

We’re proud to have supported this meaningful initiative and to play a small part in the impact being made in our community 💙

Follow along, share this post, and help us spread the word — every bit of awareness helps change a smile!

Metal or ceramic dental implants… which one is right for your smile? 🤔🦷

Many patients are surprised to learn that dental implants come in different materials. At North Raleigh Periodontics and Implant Center, we often talk with patients about two main options: titanium implants and zirconia (ceramic) implants.

Titanium implants 🦷
Titanium has been the gold standard in implant dentistry for decades. It’s extremely strong, highly researched, and has a long track record of success. Many patients do very well with titanium implants and they remain a reliable, proven choice for replacing missing teeth.

Zirconia implants 🦷✨
Zirconia implants, like the Pearl ceramic implant system, are a newer metal-free alternative made from ceramic.

Why some patients choose zirconia:

🤍 Metal-free option for patients who prefer holistic or ceramic dentistry
🤍 White color that blends beautifully with teeth and gums, especially in the front of the mouth
🤍 Extremely biocompatible with gum tissue
🤍 Plaque may accumulate less easily on the surface
🤍 May lead to less peri-implant inflammation in some patients

Titanium and zirconia implants are both excellent options. The best choice depends on things like:

🦷 Location of the missing tooth
🦷 Your gum health
🦷 Aesthetic goals
🦷 Personal preferences about materials

Every smile is different, and choosing the right dental implant starts with a personalized evaluation.

If you're considering dental implants and want to learn whether zirconia or titanium implants may be best for you, we’d love to help guide you through your options. 😊

Call North Raleigh Periodontics and Implant Center to schedule a dental implant consultation and learn more about zirconia implants, titanium implants, gum health, and long-lasting tooth replacement in Raleigh, NC.

Your healthiest smile starts with the right plan. 🦷✨

At North Raleigh Periodontics and Implant Center, we love supporting our community—and there’s no better example of local tradition than the Krispy Kreme Challenge. While it might seem ironic for a dental practice to show up at a donut‑themed run, our team chose the path of exercise, fun, and community support—participating in the run itself and leaving the dozen donuts to the more competitive eaters!

What if the #1 health problem in the world was hiding in your smile? 🦷⚠️

It’s Gum Disease Awareness Month.

Periodontal disease is:
➡️ The number one cause of tooth loss in adults
➡️ The most common health condition worldwide
➡️ Linked to serious systemic health risks

And here’s the surprising part… it’s usually painless. 😳 Just because it doesn’t hurt doesn’t mean it’s not a problem.

What causes gum disease?
Plaque. That’s it. 🦠 It’s bacteria.

Every time you chew, bacteria can enter the bloodstream. It only takes about a minute to travel from your mouth to the rest of your body. That’s why oral health is whole-body health. ❤️

The good news?
It’s preventable.
It’s treatable.
And it starts with something FREE.

🪥 Brush
🦷 Floss
Repeat four times a day to physically disrupt bacteria so the bad guys don’t multiply.

It’s a habit change that can protect your teeth — and your overall health.

If your gums bleed, feel tender, look swollen, or even if everything seems “fine,” it’s worth getting checked. Early treatment is simple and effective.

Don’t ignore what your gums might be trying to tell you.

Schedule your gum health evaluation today and take control of your smile. 📞✨

Your gums don’t have to keep receding… there’s a way to restore and protect them 👏✨

This before and after is just 4 weeks after a connective tissue graft (surgery was 1/22) 🗓️ Healing is still underway, and we’ll continue to follow up as the tissue matures — but the improvement already makes a big difference 🤍

When roots are exposed, it can lead to:
⚡ Sensitivity to hot and cold
😣 Tenderness when brushing
🦷 Increased risk for root wear and decay

A connective tissue graft is the most common and predictable way to cover exposed roots and strengthen your smile long term.

Here’s what that looks like in simple terms:

➡️ A small, gentle space is created in the gum where coverage is needed
➡️ A thin layer of healthy tissue is carefully taken from just beneath the surface of the roof of the mouth
➡️ That tissue is placed into the prepared area to cover and protect the exposed root
➡️ The area is secured with sutures so it can heal and blend naturally

The graft receives nourishment from the surrounding tissue as it heals, and over the next several weeks it continues to strengthen and integrate 🌱

If your teeth look longer than they used to or you’re experiencing sensitivity, don’t ignore it. Gum recession is common — but it’s treatable.

Most people don’t realize how much disease hides below the gumline 👇
This transformation changed everything.

Before: heavy calculus and inflamed tissue.
After: clean root surfaces and a stable foundation for healing 🙌

Scaling and Root Planing (SRP) is a non-surgical periodontal procedure that removes plaque and hardened calculus above and below the gumline. Root planing smooths the root surface in deeper pockets (over 3mm) to allow the tissue to reattach and heal.

Local anesthetic keeps you comfortable, and treatment is typically completed over 2–3 visits 💉🪥

But here’s something important 👇

Not all SRP is the same.

We often see patients who’ve had “deep cleanings” elsewhere that were uncomfortable, overly aggressive, or left them swollen and discouraged 😞

SRP requires precision, control, and a healthy respect for the gingiva. Working subgingivally is technique-sensitive. It’s what we do every day.

Periodontal specialists are trained specifically to treat disease below the gumline. The goal is thorough removal of bacteria and calculus — without unnecessary trauma.

First we remove the cause.
Then we evaluate for regenerative treatment if needed.

And none of it works without daily home care:
🧵 Floss
🪥 Brush up to 4x/day
🗓 Keep maintenance visits
💊 Antibiotics when indicated

This localized case is now a candidate for regeneration because the foundation is clean and stable.

If your gums are bleeding, swollen, or you’ve had a rough experience in the past, there is a better way 💙

Schedule an evaluation with North Raleigh Periodontics and Implant Center and experience periodontal care done with precision and purpose 📞✨

What if the signs of gum disease weren’t as obvious as you think? Many people assume bleeding gums, sensitivity, or even occasional bad breath are just “normal.” In this episode of the Gum Guru podcast, we unpack subtle warning signs you shouldn’t ignore — and why seeing a periodontist earlier than you think could save your teeth, your time, and potentially support your overall health.
