Gum disease: Act fast, save your smile

Periodontics is a crucial aspect of oral health care that deals with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease and other related conditions. It is a specialized field of dentistry that focuses on the supporting structures of teeth, including the gums, bones, and connective tissues. Periodontists are experts in treating gum disease, which is one of the leading causes of tooth loss in adults.

Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a chronic bacterial infection that affects the gums and bone surrounding teeth. It is caused by the buildup of plaque, a sticky film of bacteria that forms on teeth and gums. If left untreated, gum disease can lead to gum recession, bone loss, and, ultimately, tooth loss. That’s why it’s important to seek treatment from a periodontist if you notice any signs of gum disease, such as bleeding gums, bad breath, or gum recession.

Watch out for the following symptoms:

  • NBleeding gums
  • NRed or Sensitive Gums
  • NReceding Gum
  • NRegular Bad Breath
  • NLoose Teeth
  • NPus Around Gums

UNDERSTANDING PERIODONTICS AND FINDING A PERIODONTIST

When your teeth are not cleaned regularly and properly, plaque will begin to build up. Plaque is a sticky substance that’s full of bacteria. It will harden into tartar, which cannot be removed with your toothbrush alone. Without professional cleaning, the bacteria will cause your gums to swell, bleed and eventually seep into your bones over the long term.

Maintaining good oral hygiene is a key component of periodontics. Regular brushing and flossing can help prevent gum disease and other oral health problems. Scaling and root planing, a non-surgical treatment that involves removing plaque and tartar from below the gumline, is also an effective way to treat gum disease and prevent its progression.

In addition to treating gum disease, periodontal surgery may be necessary to repair damage to the gums and bone. This can include procedures such as gum grafts, which cover exposed tooth roots and reduce sensitivity, or bone grafts, which are used to regenerate bone lost due to gum disease.

At the Dental Health Clinic, we have highly skilled dental hygienists who can spot all forms of periodontal disease from its beginning stages as gingivitis to advanced periodontal disease.

IS LASER GUM TREATMENT PAINFUL?

One of the biggest concerns for patients seeking gum disease treatment is the potential pain and discomfort associated with traditional oral surgery. However, with laser gum treatment, patients can enjoy a much more comfortable experience with significantly less pain and discomfort. Laser gum treatment is a minimally invasive approach that utilizes laser technology to remove bacteria and diseased tissue from the gums, leaving healthy tissue unharmed. Unlike traditional surgery, which requires incisions and sutures, laser gum treatment is a non-surgical alternative that uses light energy to target and eliminate the bacteria causing gum disease precisely.

Patients can resume normal activities immediately following treatment without needing pain medication or antibiotics.

Gingival Recession or Gum Recession

Gingival or gum recession can lead to tooth sensitivity, decay, and even tooth loss. But there’s good news, soft tissue grafting and gum graft surgery are highly effective options for treating and preventing gum recession.

These procedures involve using healthy tissue to repair and protect the exposed tooth roots, promoting healthy gum growth and reducing the risk of further recession. Plus, you can maintain healthy gums and a beautiful smile for years with proper gum recession prevention techniques such as regular dental checkups and good oral hygiene habits. 

Please don’t wait until it’s too late to address the gum recession. Schedule a consultation with a periodontist today to learn more about your options for restoring and protecting your oral health.
