What Is Periodontics?

Periodontics is the dental specialty that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum-related conditions. These include gingivitis, periodontitis, and issues affecting the supporting structures of the teeth. Our experienced team uses advanced techniques to detect early signs of gum disease and provide treatment that protects your long-term oral health.

Common Signs of Gum Disease

Recognizing the early symptoms of gum disease is essential. If you notice any of the following, schedule an evaluation with our team:

• Red, swollen, or bleeding gums

• Persistent bad breath

• Gum recession

• Loose or shifting teeth

• Pain while chewing

Fortunately, with professional periodontal care, many of these issues can be reversed or managed effectively.
