What Is Periodontics?
Periodontics is the specialized area of dentistry focused on the health of the gums and the structures that support the teeth. When bacteria and plaque build up beneath the gumline, it can lead to inflammation, infection and eventually bone loss. Periodontal care addresses these concerns early, helping to avoid more serious complications down the road.
Common signs that may indicate a need for periodontal care include:
- Red, swollen or bleeding gums
- Persistent bad breath
- Gum recession or pockets around teeth
- Loose or shifting teeth
- Discomfort when brushing or chewing
Dr. Emily Wolfe provides thorough evaluations to detect these symptoms and offers individualized treatment plans to restore health and function.
