Frequently Asked Questions
Your path to a healthier smile starts with clarity. Find the answers you need to move forward with confidence.
What is periodontal disease?
Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, is an infection of the gums and supporting structures around the teeth. It often starts as gingivitis (early gum inflammation) and can progress to periodontitis if left untreated.
What are the signs that I may need periodontal treatment?
Common signs include red, swollen, or bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, gum recession, loose teeth, or discomfort when chewing. Regular dental exams help catch these signs early before serious damage occurs.
Is periodontal treatment painful?
Most periodontal treatments, including deep cleanings, are performed with local anesthesia for comfort. Patients typically experience minimal discomfort and a smoother recovery with proper post-care instructions.
How often will I need periodontal maintenance?
After initial treatment, we typically recommend periodontal maintenance visits every 3–4 months. These appointments help control bacteria and prevent gum disease from returning.
Can gum disease affect my overall health?
Yes. Studies show that gum disease is linked to other health issues, including heart disease, diabetes, and pregnancy complications. Treating periodontal disease supports both your oral and systemic health.
