Periodontal Disease
Services
Many people can have gum disease without having any symptoms. Regular periodontal exams and dental cleanings are critical in maintaining healthy teeth and gums. As part of our maintenance schedule your gingival tissues are inspected for colour and firmness, your teeth evaluated for looseness and your bite examined and checked. Digital x rays and gentle probing may also be used to evaluate changes in the bone that supports your teeth.
We recognise that each patient is different in their individual ability to resist gum disease. Should you have periodontal disease, today’s advanced treatment procedures can usually save your teeth and your smile.
