Treatment for every stage of gum disease.
Gum & Periodontal Care.
Periodontal disease progresses in stages. Gingivitis causes swelling and bleeding and can often be corrected with cleanings and better home care. Left untreated, it can advance to periodontitis, where the gums pull away from the teeth, and eventually to advanced periodontitis, which can lead to tooth loss.
Managing gum disease
Daily brushing and flossing, along with a dental exam every six months, are the foundation of prevention. For periodontitis and advanced periodontitis, treatment is personalized and may include implants, bridges, or other tooth replacement options alongside pain relief.
