Periodontal FAQs
How do I know if I need periodontal treatment?
Many people will experience symptoms like:
- Bleeding gums
- Persistent bad breath
- Loose teeth
- Gum recession
However, some people will have gum disease with no symptoms at all. If you’re concerned, contact us to schedule an appointment. We’ll assess your gum health and determine if periodontal treatment is needed. Early intervention is key to preventing further damage.
How often should I visit for gum maintenance?
Maintaining the long-term health of your gums is crucial. Regular gum maintenance visits, typically every three to six months, play a vital role. During these appointments, we perform thorough examinations, clean your teeth and gums, and offer guidance on proper home care practices.
Can periodontal treatment improve my overall health?
Absolutely! Gum disease has connections to heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory problems. By addressing gum health and receiving periodontal treatments, you're not just promoting oral well-being but also reducing the risk of associated health issues. At Commonwealth Dentistry, we prioritize both your oral and systemic health.
