Periodontal disease affects the tissues supporting the teeth. It usually develops as a result of inflammation caused by bacterial plaque accumulating near the gum line.
Early recognition of symptoms and regular hygiene appointments help control disease progression and protect the supporting tissues.
Symptoms worth noticing
- red or swollen gums
- bleeding during brushing or eating
- increasing tartar accumulation
- gum recession and periodontal pocket formation
How we help
During follow-up visits we remove plaque, supra- and subgingival calculus and surface stains using ultrasonic tools and air polishing.
Regular preventive care lowers the risk of tooth mobility and helps preserve periodontal health for the long term.
