Our clinic specializes in both the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal diseases, utilizing state-of-the-art technology and advanced treatment methods.
Understanding Periodontal Disease
Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, is an inflammatory condition affecting the gums and, in severe cases, can impact the jawbone. This disease is typically caused by bacteria found in plaque, leading to gum inflammation, bleeding, and if left untreated, can result in tooth loss. Early diagnosis and treatment are vital in preventing the progression of periodontal disease.
Key Indicators of Periodontal Disease:
- Red, swollen, or tender gums
- Bleeding while brushing or flossing
- Receding gums
- Persistent bad breath
- Loose or shifting teeth
