Periodontics: Taking Care of Your Gums and More
Periodontics is a branch of dentistry dedicated to the health of your gums and the structures supporting your teeth. They play a crucial role in keeping your smile healthy and strong.
At Right Dental, our highly skilled periodontists utilize cutting-edge technology to diagnose and treat a wide range of gum problems. Here’s a glimpse into what they do:
Periodontal Procedures:
1. Root Planning: Think of this as a deep cleaning! It involves removing harmful plaque and bacteria buildup below the gumline, preventing further infection and promoting healing.
2. Regenerative Procedures: If you’ve lost bone or gum tissue due to gum disease, these procedures aim to “regenerate” them, restoring your smile’s health and function.
3. Root Debridement: Similar to root planning, this procedure focuses on removing infected tissue around the teeth and roots, creating a healthy environment for healing.
Surgical Intervention:
While most periodontal treatments are non-surgical, sometimes surgery may be necessary for severe gum disease or complex cases. Our experts will carefully assess your needs and recommend the best course of action.
Beyond Gum Care:
Periodontists also excel in placing and maintaining dental implants, offering a reliable and long-lasting solution for missing teeth.
Remember: Healthy gums are vital for a healthy smile! If you have any concerns about your gums or have questions about periodontal care, schedule a consultation with our experienced team at Right Dental. We’re here to help you achieve and maintain a healthy, confident smile.
