Periodontal Disease Treatment

What is Periodontal Disease?

Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, is a progressive dental condition that affects millions of Americans. 

Periodontal disease affects the tissues supporting your teeth, including your gums, jawbone, and surrounding structures. While early-stage gingivitis can often be managed with improved oral hygiene and professional cleanings, untreated gum disease can progress to periodontitis, leading to:

• Bleeding gums and tissue inflammation
• Chronic bad breath
• Receding gums
• Loose teeth or changes in bite
• Potential tooth loss

Early detection and treatment are crucial for preventing serious complications from periodontal disease. Regular dental check-ups help catch gum disease in its earliest, most treatable stages.

Benefits of Professional Periodontal Treatment

Professional treatment halts the progression of gum disease, protecting both your gum tissue and the crucial supporting structures, including your jawbone and periodontal ligaments. Early intervention can prevent permanent damage.

Professional periodontal care will help you:

• Prevent tooth loss
• Stabilize loose teeth
• Restore proper bite alignment
• Stop gum recession
• Reduce inflammation and discomfort

Delaying periodontal care often leads to more complex challenges that require invasive surgical procedures and higher treatment costs. Don't wait until minor symptoms become major problems. Our experienced team will provide comfortable, effective treatment options to restore your oral health.
