PERIODONTICS
 

A periodontist is a dental specialist in periodontal (gum) disease.

 
We provide treatment is provided for the following problems:
  1. Pockets (when the collar of gum becomes infected and detaches from the tooth, the space it leaves is called a pocket).
  2. Bleeding (although a common occurrence, gums should not bleed regularly and is an early sign that pockets and boneless will occur)
  3. Bone loss (if left untreated bone loss due to periodontal decay can lead to teeth removal)
  4. Loose teeth; spaces forming between front teeth (although crowding of the mandibular (lower) front incisors occurs naturally as we age, space forming between some of the maxillary (front) teeth is a sign of advanced bone loss. This bone loss is due to the lack of tooth support which is a manifestation of progressive gum disease.)
  5. Halitosis (bad breath)
  6. Abscess (the expansion of a gum pocket due to trapped bacteria.)
