Specialist care for healthy gums and stable bone, the foundation of every smile.
Periodontology focuses on the tissues supporting the teeth, namely gums and bone. Gum disease is one of the most common causes of tooth loss in adults and often progresses silently. Early signs include bleeding when brushing, redness, swelling and bad breath.
Treatment starts with a complete periodontal assessment, including measurement of the pockets around each tooth and X-rays when needed. Most cases respond well to a non-surgical protocol called deep cleaning or scaling and root planing, which removes plaque and tartar from below the gumline in one or two appointments.
In advanced cases we plan a tailored program that may include guided regeneration of lost bone, soft-tissue grafting and personalized maintenance therapy at three or four-month intervals to keep the disease under control.
At DentalIA periodontal care is delivered by clinicians and hygienists trained in the latest protocols. Our goal is to stabilize the disease, preserve your natural teeth as long as possible and provide a sustainable home-care routine.
