Frequently Asked Questions About Periodontics

Periodontics is the branch of dentistry that focuses on preventing, diagnosing, and treating gum disease and other conditions affecting the gums and supporting structures around the teeth.

Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is an infection of the gums caused by plaque and bacteria buildup. If left untreated, it can lead to gum recession, bone loss, and tooth loss.

Common symptoms include red or swollen gums, bleeding when brushing or flossing, persistent bad breath, gum recession, tooth sensitivity, and loose teeth.

Healthy gums provide the foundation that supports your teeth. Maintaining good periodontal health helps prevent tooth loss and contributes to overall oral and general health.

Periodontal treatment may include deep cleanings, laser therapy, gum infection management, and regenerative procedures to restore damaged gum and bone tissue.

Early-stage gum disease can often be reversed with professional cleanings and improved oral hygiene. More advanced periodontal disease can be controlled and managed with appropriate treatment.

Scaling and root planing is a deep cleaning procedure that removes plaque and tartar below the gumline and smooths the tooth roots to help the gums heal and reattach.

Most periodontal procedures are performed with local anesthesia to keep you comfortable. Minimally invasive techniques and laser therapy can further reduce discomfort.

Treatment time varies depending on the severity of gum disease and the procedures required. Some patients need a single deep cleaning, while others benefit from ongoing periodontal maintenance.

Yes, untreated periodontal disease can damage the bone and tissues that support your teeth, eventually causing them to loosen or fall out.

Yes, treating gum disease can reduce the bacteria responsible for persistent bad breath and improve overall oral hygiene.

Gum recession occurs when the gum tissue pulls away from the teeth, exposing more of the tooth root. Periodontal treatment can help manage the condition and protect the teeth.

The frequency depends on your gum health. Patients with periodontal disease may need more frequent maintenance visits to keep their gums healthy and stable.

Many dental insurance plans cover medically necessary periodontal treatment. Our team can review your benefits and explain your coverage.
