What Is Periodontal Disease Treatment?
Gum disease can affect more than just your smile. It can lead to discomfort, bad breath, and serious dental problems. At Oasis Smiles Dentistry and Vista Oasis Smiles, we help our patients take care of their gums to protect teeth and overall oral health. Caused by damaging dental bacteria, periodontal disease is regarded as a major source of loose or missing teeth among those past the age of 35 and is often related to a number of overall health concerns. These bacteria live within tartar deposits that can pile up on the teeth and secrete toxins that may start to degrade the gums, bone, and other tissues that hold every tooth in its proper spot. Periodontal disease develops in stages, starting as gingivitis with redness, swelling, and bleeding. Without care, it can progress to periodontitis, causing deep infections and tooth loss. Treatment for gum disease includes addressing bad breath or halitosis, reducing gum inflammation, and protecting your oral health. A strong foundation of healthy gums helps keep your teeth for years to come. Contact our San Diego or Vista, CA office to schedule a consultation and seek early care and better results.
How Is Periodontal Disease Treated?
Treatment for gum disease depends on its severity. Scaling and root planing removes plaque and tartar beneath the gumline to reduce inflammation. Laser gum therapy targets bacteria while promoting healing. Antibacterial treatments control infection, and gum grafting restores receding gum tissue. In severe cases, surgical treatment may be necessary to repair damage. Bad breath treatment involves deep cleaning to remove odor-causing bacteria, antimicrobial rinses to reduce bacterial buildup, and personalized hygiene recommendations to keep the mouth fresh and healthy.
