Protect Your Gums and Teeth from Gum Disease
We offer periodontal therapy to help patients who are suffering from gum disease. Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, affects the tissues surrounding your teeth and can lead to tooth loss if not treated promptly. Our goal is to provide effective treatments to restore your gum health and prevent further damage.
What Is Periodontal Disease?
Periodontal disease is an infection of the gums and supporting structures of your teeth. It begins with gingivitis, a mild form of gum disease caused by plaque buildup. If left untreated, gingivitis can progress to periodontitis, where the infection spreads deeper into the tissues and bone that support the teeth.
Caring for Your Gums After Treatment
- Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly.
- Use antimicrobial mouthwash to reduce bacteria in your mouth.
- Attend regular check-ups to monitor your gum health and prevent future issues.
- Avoid smoking, as it can interfere with healing and increase the risk of gum disease.
