If you are lacks in taking care
of your oral health you’re going to end up with one of two results, periodontal
disease or lost teeth. The former won’t
go away by itself. The later just falls
out. Your line of defense is prevention –
good routine home care and seeing your dentist at least twice a year. Regular dental checkups and cleanings are
essential to preventing periodontal diseases.
And when you don’t engage in good oral health practices the likelihood
of disease increases.
In some cases, even with these
practices, a certain percentage of patients experience some form of periodontal
disease that must be treated. Depending
on the extent of the disease, your dentist may recommend the more aggressive
treatment of scaling and root planing.
Scaling is used to remove plaque and tartar beneath the gumline and the
root surfaces are planed to allow the gum tissue to heal and reattach to the
tooth.
Preventing and treating the
disease in the early stages are the best approach to keeping your smile
healthy. We’re a multi-specialty
practice that can help you and your family maintain the proper oral
health. We specialize
in the right smile. So call now and get your oral
health in order.
