This is how periodontal disease (gum disease) can progress.
Dr. Mitchell A. Lomke, DDS, offers the latest technology for minimally invasive gum disease treatment: laser treatment. Smile Designs of Olney offers diode lasers (soft treatment), Erbium lasers (Er: YAG – hard and soft tissue), CO2 lasers (carbon dioxide laser – soft tissue), and Argon laser (composite curing without any heat generation.) Laser therapy has many benefits compared to traditional methods that require a scalpel and sutures. Regularly seeing a dentist and keeping up with dental care at home are the best ways to avoid gum disease. If you’re an Olney, MD resident looking for a new dental home, there are many reasons to make Smile Designs of Olney your #1 choice.

Our office is rated five stars for a reason! Dr. Mitchell A. Lomke, DDS, and his son, Dr. Joshua M. Lomke, DDS, are dental perfectionists. Your smile means a lot.

From cosmetic dentistry to gum disease treatment, our goal is to ensure that patients have healthy, vibrant smiles that they can enjoy looking at when they look into the mirror.
We Treat Our Patients Like Family!
We specialize in family dentistry, and we are a family-owned and family-oriented practice. We bring up these points because patients should undeniably feel comfortable at a dentist’s office. Dental phobia is real! Did you know that 48% of Americans either have a dental phobia or are at least uncomfortable about stepping foot inside of a dentist’s office? Our goal is to reduce that fear. You can bring your whole family to our office, and we’ll treat them kindly, keeping any of their concerns (or fears) in mind.
What You Can To Do Prevent Gum Disease!
We cannot stress enough to take care of your dental health, and just your health overall. Gum disease prevention is possible by brushing your teeth, flossing, using an antiseptic mouthwash, and eating healthy foods. Prevention is also possible by drinking a lot of water, and most importantly, scheduling an exam with us. If you do have gum disease, laser-assisted gum therapy is virtually painless, so much so that you may not even need anesthetics. Also, you’ll have a reduced risk of catching an infection. If you’re experiencing any of these signs or symptoms, reach out to us today:
- Swollen, Red, or Bleeding Gums
- Tooth Sensitivity
- Shifting Teeth or Receding Gums
- Constant Bad Breath
- Pus in Between Your Teeth
