Periodontal Therapy
At Ethos Family Dental, we believe in the importance of good oral health. That's why we offer periodontal therapy, a specialized form of treatment for gum disease.
What is Periodontal Therapy?
Periodontal therapy is a type of treatment that is used to address gum disease, which is a serious infection that can damage the gums and surrounding tissue. Gum disease is caused by a buildup of plaque and tartar, which can cause the gums to become inflamed and infected. If left untreated, gum disease can lead to tooth loss and other serious health problems.
Our Periodontal Therapy Services
At Ethos Family Dental, we offer a range of periodontal therapy options to help our patients achieve and maintain healthy gums. These services include:
- Scaling and root planing: This procedure involves removing plaque and tartar from the teeth and smoothing the root surfaces to help prevent the re-occurrence of gum disease.
- Antibiotic therapy: In some cases, antibiotics may be prescribed to help kill the bacteria that cause gum disease.
- Gum surgery: In advanced cases of gum disease, gum surgery may be necessary to remove infected tissue and repair damage to the gums and jawbone.
Why Choose Periodontal Therapy?
Periodontal therapy is important for maintaining good oral health and preventing more serious problems from developing. By addressing gum disease early, you can help preserve your natural teeth and avoid costly and extensive treatment in the future.
