At general dental checkups, updates about your periodontal and dental health are provided. While your regular dentist can offer support if you have gingivitis, you may need more specialized care if you are struggling with periodontitis, the more advanced form of an infection. When periodontitis is not being addressed, there are serious consequences that can impact your appearance and general health. Remember that the longer you spend putting off an appointment, the more time you give your infection to create problems!
Based on a diagnostic review of your periodontal health, we can explore options for treatment. Advanced services we can provide include:
Because plans are based around individual patients, we can determine a treatment approach that is ideally suited to your current needs and issues.
For patients who have a history of experiencing issues with gum disease, supportive periodontal maintenance can be beneficial. During these regular visits, advanced cleanings take place to fight bacteria that can form on your roots. Keeping microbes from building up serves to manage problems and prevent complications. While the frequency of these appointments can vary, many who require it benefit from appointments set at three month intervals. These appointments can take the place of routine dental cleanings.
Problems with poor gum health should not be ignored. Letting an issue go without the right care can lead to worsening trouble—you can experience tooth loss, and you can experience problems with your overall health. Our practice provides different specialized services that support those who need help managing periodontal disease.
