Protecting Your Whole Mouth

Maintaining healthy gums is vital to the success of all other dental work. If periodontal disease is left untreated, it can jeopardize restorative procedures like Fillings, and the long-term success of Dental Crowns, Bridges, and Implants. Our comprehensive care philosophy means we treat the mouth as a complete system.

Understanding Periodontal Disease

Gum disease is an infection of the tissues surrounding your teeth, caused by the buildup of plaque and tartar. It ranges from a mild form (gingivitis) to a severe form (periodontitis) that can lead to bone loss and eventual tooth loss.

Early Detection is Key

  • During routine Checkups at Cameo Dental, we carefully screen for early signs of gum inflammation or periodontal disease.
  • Symptoms such as bleeding, redness, or swollen gums should be addressed promptly.
  • Early detection allows for simpler, effective, and non-surgical treatment options to protect oral health.

Tooth Replacement with Implants

  • Periodontal treatment is personalized to the severity of your condition and needs.
  • Scaling and root planing remove plaque below the gum line and smooth the roots, while ongoing maintenance prevents recurrence.
  • Advanced cases may require referral for surgical procedures to restore gum and bone tissue.

We are committed to providing compassionate care, especially for treatments like deep cleanings that can cause some apprehension.

Treatment of Periodontal Disease FAQ

  • What causes periodontal disease?

    Periodontal disease is primarily caused by the buildup of plaque and tartar on the teeth, which hardens and harbors bacteria that infect the gums and bone.

  • Can periodontal disease affect dental implants?

    Yes, untreated gum disease can compromise the bone and tissue that support Dental Implants, which is why managing your periodontal health is critical for long-term implant success.

  • What if the disease is too advanced for simple treatment?

    If your case is advanced, we will still manage the initial disease and then may coordinate a referral for specialized treatment like periodontal surgery, to ensure the best possible outcome for your health.
