Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a prevalent oral health issue that can have serious consequences if left untreated. It is primarily caused by the accumulation of bacteria and dental plaque, which leads to inflammation and infection of the gum tissues. Over time, untreated gum disease can result in various complications, including bone loss, tooth loss and gum tissue recession. Recognizing the signs of gum disease is crucial for seeking prompt treatment.

Common symptoms of gum disease include swollen, red or tender gums, as well as bleeding when brushing or flossing. Other indicators may include loose teeth, discomfort while chewing, persistent bad breath and receding gums that make teeth appear longer than usual. If you experience any of these symptoms, we strongly recommend that you schedule an appointment with our dentist as soon as possible.

Our experienced dentist will assess your condition and recommend a tailored treatment plan based on its severity. Treatment options may include:

• Additional professional dental cleanings
• Guidance on improved at-home oral hygiene practices
• Antibiotic therapy
• Scaling and root planing (deep cleaning)
• Gum surgery (in more severe cases)

Our primary goal is to help you regain and maintain optimal oral health while preventing the progression of the disease.
