Periodontal Treatment in Kingwood, TX
Did you know that over 64,000,000 Americans suffer from gum disease? Periodontal gum disease is caused due to infections of the gums and bones which hold the teeth in place. Over time, patients’ gums recede and detach from the teeth, resulting in loose and even on occasion, missing teeth. In the earliest stages of periodontal disease, gingivitis, the condition can actually be reversed, however, once it has progressed to gum disease you can only manage the condition. In many cases, periodontal disease goes neglected. However routine visits to your dentist could help prevent gingivitis from ever advancing.
Non-Surgical Periodontal Treatment in Kingwood, TX
At Kingwood Perfect Smiles we believe the least invasive treatment options should be explored first. For this reason, we are proud to offer periodontal services such as deep cleaning, scaling, root planing and routine teeth cleanings.
- Scaling – During scaling, specialized dental tools are used to gently and thoroughly remove any infection, bacteria, plaque or tartar that has built up above, on and below the gum line.
- Root Planing – Root planing involves smoothing the tooth root surfaces and removing any infection so that the gums can properly re-attach to the teeth and heal.
Routine Dental Cleanings
Once your periodontal disease is under control, we recommend frequent professional dental examinations and teeth cleanings; this can help prevent your condition from progressing further and causing additional complications.
