Protect Your Gum Health
Skipping regular brushing and flossing and dental cleanings can build bacterial plaque and tartar on your teeth. If left untreated the bacteria may infect gum tissue causing damage to the jawbone and structure of tooth support eventually leading to tooth loss. This condition is caused Periodontal Disease.
Periodontal Disease may cause gums to be red, swollen, tender to touch and bleed easily. Loose teeth, painful chewing, persistent bad breath and receding gums are other common symptoms.
Treatment of Periodontal Disease is based on specific patient needs. At Martin Family & Cosmetic Dentistry we practice root planning and scaling, the most effective way to treat gum disease. Other treatment may include antibiotics, improved oral hygiene and gum surgery. Following diagnosis and initial treatment, routine appointments are recommended to maintain conditions and disease condition.
