What Is Periodontal Disease?
Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease or periodontitis, is a bacterial infection that affects the tissues and bone supporting your teeth. As the infection progresses, it can cause:
- Red, inflamed, or tender gums
- Bleeding when brushing or flossing
- Gum recession or exposed roots
- Pain or soreness along the gumline
- Loose teeth or tooth loss
Beyond oral health, gum disease has been linked to heart disease, stroke, and diabetes, making early diagnosis and treatment essential to maintaining both oral health and total-body health.
How We Treat Gum Disease
At Downtown Dental Design, we focus on effective, minimally invasive periodontal care to restore your gum health and prevent future issues. Our top periodontal treatments include:Periodontal Exams
Every visit begins with a comprehensive periodontal evaluation by our team to measure gum pocket depths, check bone levels, and identify any areas of active infection or inflammation.Periodontal Deep Cleaning (Scaling and Root Planing)
The treatment of choice for gum disease is a deep cleaning, performed under local anesthetic for your comfort.- Scaling removes plaque and tartar from beneath the gumline.
- Root planing smooths root surfaces to help gums heal and reattach.
Antibiotic Therapy
When a deeper infection is present, we may apply localized antibiotics into specific gum pockets. This targeted therapy reduces bacteria and inflammation while supporting faster healing.Chemotherapeutic Rinses
As part of your at-home care, we may recommend medicated mouth rinses to control bacteria and maintain gum health between visits.Why Periodontal Health Matters
Healthy gums do more than support your teeth; they protect your entire body. Treating gum disease can reduce inflammation in the foundation of your smile, improve your breath and overall comfort, and help you preserve your natural smile for life.
