WHAT IS GUM DISEASE?
Gum disease is an infection that affects the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. It begins with gingivitis, characterized by inflamed and bleeding gums. If left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, causing gum recession, bone loss and potential tooth loss. Common signs of gum disease include:
- Red, swollen or tender gums
- Bleeding gums during brushing or flossing
- Persistent bad breath
- Loose teeth
- Changes in bite or tooth alignment.
THE TREATMENT PROCESS
Our dentist will conduct a comprehensive examination to assess the severity of your gum disease. The treatment approach may vary depending on the stage and extent of the condition. Nonsurgical treatments like scaling and root planing are often the initial step, where plaque and tartar are carefully removed from above and below the gumline. In more advanced cases, surgical interventions such as pocket reduction surgery or gum grafting may be necessary to repair damaged gum tissues and restore oral health.
