Understanding Periodontal Disease Treatment Costs and Your Options
Gum disease affects your oral health, overall health, and—in many cases—the stability of your natural teeth. Because periodontal disease progresses in stages, the cost of gum disease treatment can vary dramatically depending on how early the infection is diagnosed and how far it has spread. Patients in Medford, Hauppauge, and across Long Island turn to Farber Center for Periodontics & Dental Implants for professional periodontal diagnosis, advanced periodontal treatments, and options that fit a wide range of needs, including non-surgical deep cleanings, gum grafting, bone regeneration, and minimally invasive periodontal surgery.
Our dentist's office in Long Island is led by Alan H. Farber, DDS, a highly respected periodontist who has spent decades treating periodontal disease, protecting natural teeth, and helping patients restore their oral health with customized treatment plans.

Advanced Periodontal Surgery
$650–$1,400 per quadrant
$800–$2,000 per area
$350–$1,200 per site
$900–$2,500, depending on severity
What Influences Gum Disease Treatment Cost
Periodontal disease isn't a one-size-fits-all diagnosis. Treatment costs vary depending on:
- Whether you have early-stage gum disease or advanced periodontal disease
- The number of quadrants requiring scaling and root planing
- Whether bone loss, gum recession, or infected tissue is present
- The need for periodontal surgery or regenerative procedures
- Your frequency of maintenance cleanings
- Whether dental implants are needed to replace teeth lost to periodontitis
These factors determine whether your treatment plan involves non-surgical scaling and root planing, periodontal surgery, gum grafting, bone grafting, pocket reduction, or a combination of procedures used to stop disease progression and stabilize your oral health.
Typical Gum Disease Treatment Costs in Medford and Hauppauge
Below is a general outline of periodontal disease treatment cost ranges. Final pricing depends on your specific diagnosis and treatment plan.
Diagnostic Evaluation
- Comprehensive periodontal exam: $95–$250
- Full-mouth X-rays or 3D imaging: $120–$350
Scaling and Root Planing (Deep Cleaning)
- $250–$480 per quadrant This is the standard non-surgical treatment for early-stage gum disease. Most patients require treatment in all four quadrants.
Periodontal Maintenance (Required Every 3–4 Months)
- $120–$220 per visit These cleanings help prevent periodontal disease from returning.
If Tooth Loss Occurs
- Extraction: $180–$600, depending on complexity
- Dental implants: $3,200–$6,000+ per implant
Saving natural teeth is always more cost-effective than replacing them.
How Your Dental Insurance Affects the Cost
Most dental insurance plans cover part of the cost of periodontal disease treatment. Coverage varies, but many plans help pay for:
- Deep cleanings (scaling and root planing)
- Periodontal exams
- Maintenance cleanings
- X-rays
- Some periodontal surgeries
The insurance team at our dentist's office reviews coverage for every patient and explains out-of-pocket costs before treatment begins.
Early-Stage Gum Disease (Gingivitis / Mild Periodontitis)
- Deep cleaning in 1–2 quadrants
- Periodontal maintenance
- Estimated total: $620–$1,400
- Early treatment is the most affordable stage to address.
Moderate Periodontal Disease
- Scaling and root planing in all quadrants
- Possibly antibiotic therapy
- Ongoing maintenance cleanings
- Estimated total: $1,200–$2,700
Advanced Periodontal Disease
- Deep cleanings
- Pocket reduction surgery
- Bone grafting or gum grafting
- Possible tooth replacement
- Estimated total: $3,500–$8,000+
Treatment becomes more involved—and more expensive—the longer periodontal disease is left untreated. If you're unsure which stage you're in, call Medford at 631-238-4968 or Hauppauge at 631-268-4859 for a periodontal evaluation at our dentist's office near you.
Why Timely Treatment Protects Both Your Teeth and Your Budget
Untreated periodontal disease affects more than your gums. It also leads to:
- Bone loss
- Tooth mobility
- Gum recession
- Tooth sensitivity
- Chronic infection
- Inflammation linked to heart disease
- Tooth loss requiring dental implants
The earlier periodontal disease is treated, the easier it is to preserve your natural teeth and avoid costly surgical procedures.
Long-term disease control usually includes:
- Deep cleanings
- Periodontal maintenance
- Improved oral hygiene
- Targeted periodontal therapy
- Monitoring gum pockets and bone levels
Farber Center supports patients through every stage of periodontal care, from diagnosis to disease control and tissue regeneration.

Frequently asked questions
How much does deep cleaning cost for treating periodontal disease?
Scaling and root planing typically ranges from $250–$480 per quadrant, depending on severity and buildup. This is the first-line, non-surgical treatment for early and moderate periodontal disease.
Does insurance cover gum disease treatment?
Many dental insurance plans help cover deep cleanings, periodontal maintenance, and some periodontal surgeries. Coverage varies, so patients receive a cost estimate and insurance breakdown at their appointment.
What increases the cost of treating periodontal disease?
Advanced gum disease, bone loss, recession, loose teeth, and the need for gum grafting or bone grafting can raise the total cost. Treatment time also increases as periodontal disease becomes more severe.
Can gum disease return even after treatment?
Yes. Periodontal disease must be managed long-term with periodontal maintenance, daily oral hygiene, and regular monitoring to prevent reinfection. Treating the disease early improves long-term outcomes and reduces future costs.
