Periodontal Disease … Are You One Among Millions?
According to the American Academy of Periodontology, almost 65 million Americans have periodontal disease, or gum disease. Unfortunately, not all are getting the treatment they need to keep this progressive condition from getting worse. Periodontal disease cannot be treated with at-home brushing and flossing; it requires specialized equipment available only through a trained dental provider.
If you have noticed any of the following symptoms of periodontal disease, please contact us for a complete examination, even if you do not have a referral from a dentist.
Common Indicators of Gum Disease in Adults:
Strengthen Teeth and Bone With Osseous Surgery
One of the problems that happens when periodontal disease takes hold is that the bacteria that cause inflammation and infection start to breed and eat away at the surrounding bone. During osseous surgery, we will carefully numb the and pull back the gums to expose the root and bone surfaces. We can then clean the root and smooth out the rough spots on the bone. This reduces places for bacteria to hide and grow. After this thorough process, the gums are reattached to protect the area. For many patients, having osseous surgery is the start to finally getting control over their gum disease.
