Periodontal Therapy

Periodontal disease affects 47.2% of US adults over the age of 30, making it one of the biggest threats to your dental health. Put the smile back on your face with periodontal therapy that ensures you’ll never need to worry about gum disease again!

What is periodontal disease?

Starting with warning signs like inflamed gums and gingivitis, periodontal disease goes beyond bacterial infection to issues that include structural tissue damage and even tooth loss. This is typically caused by the development of tartar when issues like gingivitis are left unaddressed, and can quickly escalate when impossible-to-clean bacteria wreaks havoc below the gumline.

Treatment to get your smile back

Good dental hygiene and regular checks are crucial in the fight against periodontal disease, but periodontal therapy as offered by our team here at Breakwater Dental provides a proactive treatment plan to put the smile back on your face. Treatments that include regular deep cleaning, medications to fight infection, and even surgical options including recontouring certainly help to halt periodontal disease in its tracks, and keep you off the path to tooth loss.
