Periodontics
Scarborough

Periodontics is the art and science of saving teeth and protecting the foundation that holds them — your gums and jawbone.
At AF Dental in Scarborough, we offer the latest periodontal and oral surgery solutions: non-surgical & laser gum disease treatment, gum grafting, bone grafting, crown lengthening, wisdom teeth removal, and dental implants to replace teeth already lost to gum disease.
Whether you have bleeding gums or need complex surgery, we can give you a healthy, stable smile — comfortably, predictably, and often faster than you think.
Bleeding or receding gums are more than just cosmetic.
They are the #1 cause of adult tooth loss in Canada — more than decay. Untreated gum disease destroys bone, causes loose teeth, bad breath, and is linked to heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.
When the Canadian Dental Association surveyed adults, over 88% said they would treat gum problems earlier if they knew how painless and effective modern treatment is.
Today, with laser therapy, microsurgery, and regenerative grafting at AF Dental Scarborough, fear and pain are no longer barriers.
Bleeding gums, loose teeth, receding gums, bad breath, and painful wisdom teeth are the most common problems we treat every day.
Two major factors decide the best solution: how advanced the disease is and how quickly you want to stop further damage.
We proudly accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) and direct-bill most insurance plans.
Early evaluation (often free) allows us to stop gum disease in its tracks — and often avoid tooth loss or major surgery later.
Adults now make up over 70% of our periodontal patients in Scarborough — proof that it’s never too late to save your natural smile.

AF Dental was founded in the first place to create absolutely beautiful smiles for Scarborough community.
