Understanding Periodontal Disease

Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, is a pervasive condition that affects the tissues surrounding and supporting your teeth. It begins with the buildup of plaque—a sticky, bacteria-laden film—on the teeth. If left untreated, plaque hardens into tartar, leading to inflammation and infection of the gums, known as gingivitis. Without proper care, gingivitis can progress to periodontitis, a more severe form of gum disease that can cause significant damage to the gums and the bone supporting the teeth, potentially leading to tooth loss.

It’s essential to maintain good oral hygiene

Maintaining good oral hygiene is essential for preventing the recurrence of periodontal disease. Our dental professionals provide personalised advice on brushing, flossing, and using antimicrobial mouth rinses. We educate our patients on the best practices to keep their gums healthy and prevent future issues.

What is the process of Periodontal disease?

At DentalOne, we treat periodontal disease through a comprehensive approach designed to manage and improve your gum health. Our specialised periodontal therapy includes:

  • Thorough Evaluation: We start with a detailed assessment of your gums to determine the severity of the disease.
  • Scaling and Root Planing: This deep cleaning procedure removes plaque and tartar buildup below the gumline and smooths the tooth roots, promoting healing and reattachment of the gums.
  • Advanced Treatments: For more severe cases, we may recommend additional treatments such as antibiotic therapy to eliminate infection or laser therapy to remove diseased tissue and bacteria.
  • Improved Oral Hygiene Guidance: We provide personalised advice on brushing, flossing, and using antimicrobial mouth rinses to help you maintain healthy gums and prevent the recurrence of periodontal disease.
  • Regular Follow-up Appointments: Continuous monitoring of your progress allows us to make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan, ensuring optimal gum health and the longevity of your teeth.

At DentalOne, our goal is to help you achieve and maintain healthy gums and overall oral well-being.
