We are the best for treating periodontal gum diseases.

Gingivitis is early gum disease it occurs when dental plaque builds up on teeth, particularly where the gum joins the tooth. The sign of gingivitis are bleeding, redness, and swelling of the gum. But Periodontitis is an advanced gum disease that may occur if gingivitis is not treated. The gum margin, the part of the gum that seals to the tooth, is weakened and spaces form between the tooth and the gum. These spaces are called ‘periodontal pockets. Bacteria become trapped in these pockets causing further inflammation (redness and swelling). Periodontitis can affect the covering of the tooth root, the bone, and the fibers that connect the cementum to the bone.  As the disease progresses and bone is lost and larger spaces begin to form between the tooth and the gum.

If you have swollen or bleeding gums or your teeth feel loose, see your dentist or oral health professional. They will examine your gums with a probe to measure the spaces between the tooth and gum. This will determine the health of your gums and supporting structures. If necessary, the dentist or oral health professional will instruct you in tooth-cleaning techniques or may clean your teeth professionally to remove any plaque and calculus.
