​If you have been told that you have gum disease and that you’ll never get rid of it, you deserve a more honest and biologically accurate assessment and plan for health. Call or message us today through our website to understand how we can help you regain the health you deserve.

Many people have been told “Once you have gum disease, it never goes away.” This is not only false, but it is ridiculous! Your body knows how to heal! Gum disease is completely reversible when we address biology, behavior, and biomechanics together. Nutrition and gut absorption are foundational. Randomized and controlled trials show that targeted dietary strategies and micronutrient sufficiency can measurably improve periodontal outcomes, underscoring the mouth–gut connection. 

Since 2004, the Blodgett Dental Care team has performed LANAP, the FDA-cleared Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure, for true tissue regeneration of gums and even supporting jawbone. Human histology and clinical studies document formation of new attachment and periodontal regeneration with LANAP (using an Nd:YAG laser), often with less bleeding and faster recovery compared to traditional surgery. 

Equally vital is what you do at home. We’ll personalize brushing, interdental cleaning, and biofilm-disrupting routines to your biology, lifestyle, and risk factors because daily habits are the foundation of long-term periodontal health.

For those suffering from gum recession, Dr. Blodgett was among the first 20 dentists worldwide trained by Dr. John Chao in the Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation (Pinhole Surgical Technique) in 2013. The Pinhole Gum Rejuvenation procedure is a minimally invasive method that repositions healthy gum tissue through a pinhole, avoiding scalpels and grafts while delivering predictable root coverage and esthetic gains. 

To sustain results and control pathogenic biofilms between visits, we recommend Perio Protect® trays. These custom trays deliver a low-dose hydrogen peroxide gel deep under the gums, complementing professional care and daily hygiene. Clinical trials show significant reductions in pocket depths and bleeding when Perio Protect is added to standard therapy. 

Our Gum Health Rejuvenation Protocol integrates evidence-based nutrition, LANAP regeneration when appropriate, minimally invasive recession care, customized home strategies, and Perio Protect maintenance—so your gums can heal, strengthen, and stay healthy for life.
