When plaque and bacteria hang around your gumline for too long, they can cause gum inflammation (gingivitis) or even more serious problems like periodontitis (advanced gum disease). That’s where periodontal treatment steps in to save the day.
It starts with deep cleaning, also called scaling and root planing. Imagine your dentist as a gum superhero, carefully clearing out all the hidden plaque and tartar from below your gums and smoothing your tooth roots to help them reattach snugly.
With a little help from your dentist and a commitment to brushing, flossing, and regular checkups, periodontal treatment can have your gums healthy and happy in no time.
Regular cleanings are essential to keeping your gums healthy and avoiding gum disease (periodontitis). If plaque and tartar build up around the teeth, it can lead to gum inflammation, bone loss, and eventually tooth loss. At 3D Dentistry, we offer periodontal therapy to help you maintain healthy gums and prevent further complications.
