Sometimes due to biological factors or after a long time without a visit to the dentist, patients require periodontal treatment. Periodontal disease, or gum disease occurs when oral bacteria infects the tissue and bone supporting your teeth. What starts as mild gingivitis can escalate to periodontitis and cause inflammation, gum recession and tooth loss. We check for signs of gum disease at your regular dental exams, and will suggest additional treatment if we start to see concerning signs.
