Periodontics
What is Periodontics?
Periodontics is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum diseases and conditions affecting the supporting structures of the teeth, including the gums, bone, and ligaments. Treatment options in periodontics address issues such as gum inflammation, gum recession, and bone loss due to periodontal disease, ensuring the health and stability of your teeth.
Who Needs Periodontics?
Periodontics may be required for individuals experiencing:
- Gum disease (gingivitis or periodontitis) causing swollen, bleeding, or receding gums.
- Persistent bad breath (halitosis) not caused by food or hygiene.
- Loose teeth or teeth shifting positions due to gum or bone loss.
- Gum recession that exposes tooth roots and increases sensitivity.
- Patients with a family history of gum disease or those with diabetes or other risk factors.
