Understanding Periodontal Disease
Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, involves the inflammation and infection of the gums, which can eventually lead to the deterioration of the tissue and bone that support your teeth. Symptoms may include swollen gums, bleeding when brushing or flossing, and persistent bad breath. If left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss. Learn more about the causes and symptoms of periodontal disease on our dedicated information page.
Our Periodontal Therapy Services
We offer a range of periodontal treatments tailored to the severity of the condition and the specific needs of each patient:
- Deep Cleaning: Removes plaque and tartar from above and below the gum line, helping to halt the progression of gum disease.
- Medication: Antibiotic treatments can be used in conjunction with other therapies to reduce gum inflammation and control infection.
- Flap Surgery: For advanced cases, surgery might be necessary to reduce periodontal pockets and improve access for cleaning the roots.
- Grafts: We perform tissue and bone grafts to regenerate any lost support and improve the aesthetics of your gum line.
