Our Services
Strong Gums, Steady Smile
Healthy gums are what keep your teeth standing. We treat the disease that loosens them and protect the bone underneath, so nothing you've got starts working its way loose.
Periodontal Treatment
Protect Your Gums. Protect Your Smile.
Gum disease is one of the most common oral health conditions, and one of the most underdiagnosed. Caught early, gingivitis is fully reversible with the right treatment. Left alone, it progresses to periodontitis, which leads to gum recession, bone loss, and eventually tooth loss. At Susan J. Curley, DDS, we catch gum disease early and use gentle, laser-assisted therapy to make treatment far more comfortable than it used to be.

Our Process
Clear, predictable steps from evaluation to healthy gums.
Step 01
Comprehensive Evaluation
Digital X-rays and a careful exam assess your gum pocket depth, bone levels, and the full extent of any disease.
Step 02
Personalized Diagnosis
Dr. Curley explains the stage of gum disease, what it means for you, and which treatments offer the best outcome.
Step 03
Scaling & Root Planing
A deep cleaning removes bacteria, plaque, and tartar from above and below the gumline. Laser therapy reduces bacteria further and supports healing.
Step 04
Home Care Plan
Personalized instructions for brushing, flossing, and any added hygiene products to keep your gums healthy.
Step 05
Ongoing Maintenance
More frequent check-ins to track healing, confirm your gum health is back on track, and prevent it returning.
