Common signs of gum disease include red, swollen, or bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, receding gums, loose teeth, and changes in your bite. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s important to schedule a periodontal evaluation as soon as possible.
Good oral hygiene is the key to preventing gum disease. Brush and floss daily, use an antimicrobial mouthwash, and visit your dentist regularly for professional cleanings and check-ups. Maintaining a healthy diet and avoiding tobacco products can also help protect your gums.
Scaling and root planing is a deep cleaning procedure used to treat gum disease. Scaling involves removing plaque and tartar from the tooth surfaces and beneath the gum line, while root planing smooths the roots to prevent bacteria from reattaching. This treatment helps reduce gum inflammation and promotes healing.
If left untreated, gum disease can progress from gingivitis to periodontitis, a more severe form that can cause gum recession, bone loss, and ultimately, tooth loss. Gum disease has also been linked to other health issues, such as heart disease and diabetes, making early treatment crucial.
If you have been diagnosed with gum disease or are at risk, it’s important to see a periodontist regularly. The frequency of visits will depend on your specific condition, but typically, patients with periodontal concerns are advised to have check-ups every three to four months.
Periodontal treatments are performed with your comfort in mind. Local anesthesia is used to numb the treatment area, and we offer options to help you relax during procedures. Any post-treatment discomfort is usually manageable with over-the-counter pain relievers and proper aftercare.
Research has shown that periodontal disease is linked to several systemic health issues, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, respiratory infections, and complications during pregnancy. Treating gum disease not only protects your oral health but also contributes to your overall well-being.
