At Dentistry of Gilbert, we focus on comprehensive periodontal care to ensure the health and longevity of your gums and teeth. Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile, and our dedicated team is here to help you maintain them.
How Periodontal Care Helps You
Periodontal care involves the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of gum disease. It is crucial for maintaining the health of the supporting structures of your teeth, including gums and bone. Regular periodontal care is essential, especially for individuals showing signs of gum problems or those with a history of gum disease.
What Happens During a Periodontal Visit
During your periodontal care visit with our dentist, you can expect:
- A thorough examination of your gums to check for signs of inflammation, recession or disease.
- Professional cleaning to remove plaque and tartar from above and below the gum line.
- Measurements of the depth of the spaces between your teeth and gums.
- Tailored recommendations for at-home gum care and potential treatments if needed.
How Periodontal Care Benefits You
- Helps in preventing and treating gum disease, which can lead to tooth loss if left unaddressed.
- Reduction in the risk of conditions linked to gum disease, such as heart disease and diabetes.
- Improved overall oral health, contributing to better general health.
- Fresh breath and a more aesthetically pleasing smile.
