What Is Periodontal Care?
Periodontal care focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease and other conditions affecting the soft tissues and bone supporting your teeth. Healthy gums not only protect your teeth but also contribute to overall health by reducing the risk of systemic conditions such as heart disease and diabetes.
We offer advanced periodontal treatments designed to restore gum health, prevent further damage, and help you achieve a confident, healthy smile.
What Are the Signs and Symptoms of Gum Disease?
Common symptoms of gum disease include:
- Swollen, red, or tender gums
- Bleeding during brushing or flossing
- Persistent bad breath
- Receding gums or teeth that appear longer
- Loose or shifting teeth
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, schedule an appointment with Hearthside Dentistry for an evaluation.
How Is Gum Disease Diagnosed?
Gum disease is diagnosed through a thorough examination, which includes:
- Visual inspection of your gums
- Measuring the depth of gum pockets around your teeth
- Digital X-rays to assess bone loss
Our team uses advanced tools to provide an accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment plan.
How Can I Prevent Gum Disease?
Preventing gum disease involves consistent oral hygiene and regular dental visits. Key tips include:
- Brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste
- Flossing daily
- Scheduling professional cleanings every six months
- Avoiding tobacco products
We offer guidance and preventative services to help you maintain optimal gum health.
