If you’re living in Monroe Township and noticing signs of gum disease, you don’t need to wait for a referral to get the care you need. Gum disease affects nearly half of American adults over 30, according to the American Dental Association, and catching it early makes all the difference in protecting your oral health.
At Middlesex Periodontics & Dental Implants, PC, Dr. Daniel Reich provides comprehensive gum disease treatment with 28 years of board-certified experience, and we’re ready to help you restore healthy gums. Whether you’re experiencing bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, or teeth that feel loose, these symptoms shouldn’t be ignored. Our practice offers same-day emergency appointments for urgent situations and flexible financing through CareCredit to make treatment accessible. We serve residents throughout Monroe Township, including Greenbriar at Whittingham, Clearbrook Community, and Monroe Village, delivering treatment options that fit your active lifestyle.
Gum disease starts as gingivitis, with inflamed and bleeding gums caused by plaque buildup along the gumline. Left untreated, it progresses to periodontitis, where infection damages the supporting bone and tissue around your teeth. This can lead to tooth loss and has been linked to serious health conditions affecting your heart and overall well-being.
The good news is that gum disease is treatable at every stage. Dr. Reich takes a personalized approach to your care, evaluating the extent of disease and creating a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. Many Monroe Township residents appreciate that we explain all options clearly and answer all questions before moving forward with any procedure.
One of the biggest advantages of choosing our practice is that you can schedule directly without needing a referral from your general dentist. This means faster access to the care you need, which is especially important if you’re dealing with discomfort or are concerned about your gum health.
Our treatment options range from non-surgical approaches to advanced procedures. Scaling and root planing is often the first line of defense, thoroughly cleaning below the gumline to remove bacteria and smooth root surfaces so gums can reattach. For more advanced cases, we offer LANAP laser gum surgery, a cutting-edge treatment that uses precise laser technology to target diseased tissue while leaving healthy gums intact. This approach offers less discomfort, no stitches, and faster healing compared to traditional surgery.
Advanced periodontal and implant treatments with financing options that make specialized care accessible to everyone.
Dr. Reich earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine in 1991 and completed his Periodontal Residency at SUNY Stony Brook in 1997. As a Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology, he brings both advanced training and nearly three decades of hands-on experience to every patient consultation.
When you visit our East Brunswick office, you’ll experience a consultation where Dr. Reich takes time to understand your concerns and explain your options in straightforward terms. We use state-of-the-art technology, including 3D imaging and in-office 3D printing for surgical guides when needed, to plan precise treatment and improve outcomes. Our friendly staff has over 75 years of combined experience at the practice, creating a welcoming environment where patients feel comfortable from the moment they walk in.
Cost shouldn’t prevent you from getting the gum disease treatment you need. We accept most dental insurance plans, including Delta Dental Premier and Cigna PPO, and we work hard to maximize your benefits. For treatments not fully covered by insurance, CareCredit financing is available with flexible payment plans that can spread costs over several years.
LANAP laser treatment typically starts at around $2,500 per quadrant, while comprehensive treatment plans vary based on the extent of disease and your individual needs. During your consultation, we’ll provide a detailed treatment estimate and discuss all your payment options so you can make informed decisions about your care.
Residents of Greenbriar at Whittingham, Clearbrook Community, and Monroe Village have specific needs when it comes to dental care. You want providers who understand that maintaining your oral health is key to staying active and enjoying retirement years without dental pain or tooth loss getting in the way. Dr. Reich works with many patients from Monroe Township’s active adult communities, providing gum disease treatment that preserves your natural teeth and prevents future problems.
Same-day emergency appointments mean you don’t have to suffer through a weekend with a gum abscess or sudden dental pain. We understand that unexpected dental issues happen, and we make room in our schedule to see urgent cases quickly. Call our office when you’re experiencing severe symptoms, and we’ll do our best to get you in the same day for evaluation and relief.
Don’t let gum disease progress to the point where you’re facing tooth loss or complex treatments. Early intervention makes treatment simpler and more effective. If you’re noticing warning signs like bleeding when you brush, gums that are pulling away from your teeth, or persistent bad breath despite good oral hygiene, it’s time to schedule a consultation.
