Frequently Asked Questions About Gum Disease Treatment
-
What are the signs of gum disease?
Common signs can include bleeding gums, gum swelling, persistent redness, gum recession, bad breath and loose or mobile teeth. Periodontal disease can progress without obvious symptoms, so a dental examination is important when gum problems persist.
-
How is gum disease treated?
Treatment depends on the type and severity of periodontal disease. It may include oral hygiene instruction, professional removal of plaque and calculus, scaling and root planing, and in more advanced cases, periodontal surgery or other appropriate treatments.
-
Can gum disease cause tooth loss?
Advanced periodontitis can damage the tissues and bone supporting the teeth and may eventually contribute to tooth loss. Early diagnosis and appropriate periodontal treatment can help control the disease and maintain the supporting structures around the teeth.
Advanced Periodontal Diagnosis & Gum Care
Effective gum disease treatment begins with accurate periodontal assessment. Dental examination, gum measurements and appropriate dental imaging can help evaluate gum health, tooth-supporting structures and the extent of periodontal involvement.
These findings allow the periodontal treatment plan to be tailored to the severity and distribution of gum disease. Where appropriate, treatment may involve non-surgical periodontal therapy or additional procedures for more advanced cases.
Gum Disease Treatment Procedure
The procedure begins with a detailed periodontal examination to evaluate the gums, plaque and calculus levels, gum pockets, tooth stability and supporting structures. Dental X-rays may be recommended to assess bone levels and other underlying concerns.
For suitable cases, initial treatment focuses on professional removal of plaque and calculus and thorough cleaning of affected tooth surfaces. Scaling and root planing is an established non-surgical approach for periodontitis and may require multiple treatment sessions depending on the extent of disease.
