GUM DISEASE AFFECTS YOUR OVERALL HEALTH

Researchers have discovered links between periodontal disease and other health conditions such as heart attacks, stroke, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and respiratory illnesses. Gum disease may also cause low birth weight babies, putting your child’s health at risk.

PERIODONTAL TREATMENT

Blood is a sign of trouble when it comes to your gums. If you find that your gums bleed when you brush or floss, it is time for a periodontal exam with Dr. Molero or Dr. Soto so we can help you get back on track. Though periodontal disease has many levels of severity, the early symptoms include:

SYMPTOMS OF GUM DISEASE

  • Bleeding when you brush or floss

  • Swollen, red gums
  • Pain when cleaning teeth
  • Bad breath

SYMPTOMS OF PERIODONTAL DISEASE

  • Pocketing around your gums
  • Puss
  • Tooth Mobility
  • Gum Reccession
  • Sensitivity to temperature
Treatment For Periodontal Disease

In its early stages, we can often reverse periodontal disease with proper treatment. In its later stages, we can control the infection with proper care and keep you on an effective schedule to help you stay healthy.

CLEANING FREQUENCY

In order to restore your health, we may recommend that you come in for dental cleanings three to four times per year. Preventing tooth loss is much easier and more affordable than replacing lost teeth!

ANTIBIOTIC TREATMENT

In the case of periodontal pocketing, we may place a localized antibiotic to assist with healing.

PERIODONTAL SURGERY

 Removing diseased tissue can help your gums heal. We have an on-site periodontist who is both skilled and extremely gentle at eliminating serious gum infections.
