FAQ

What is periodontal disease?

Periodontal disease, or gum disease, is an infection of the gums and tissues that support the teeth. It can lead to gum inflammation, gum recession, and even tooth loss if left untreated.

What are the signs of periodontal disease?

Common signs include red, swollen, or bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, receding gums, loose teeth, and changes in the bite. If you experience any of these symptoms, it’s important to see a dentist for an evaluation.

How is periodontal disease treated?

Treatment options depend on the severity of the disease but may include deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), antibiotic therapy, gum surgery, and bone grafting. Your dentist will recommend the most appropriate treatment plan for your specific case.

Can periodontal disease be prevented?

Yes, practicing good oral hygiene is key to prevention. This includes regular brushing, flossing, and routine dental check-ups. Avoiding tobacco use and maintaining a healthy lifestyle also contribute to gum health.

Is periodontal treatment painful?

The treatment itself is usually performed with local anesthesia to minimize discomfort. After the procedure, you may experience some soreness or sensitivity, but this can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.

How long does periodontal treatment take?

The duration of treatment varies depending on the extent of the disease. In some cases, it may require multiple appointments over a few weeks or months. Your dentist will provide a treatment timeline based on your individual needs.

Will my dental insurance cover periodontal treatment?

Many dental insurance plans cover a portion of the cost of periodontal treatment. It’s best to check with your insurance provider to understand your coverage and any associated out-of-pocket expenses.

What are the long-term effects of untreated periodontal disease?

If left untreated, periodontal disease can result in tooth loss and can potentially contribute to systemic health issues, such as heart disease and diabetes. Seeking early treatment is essential for maintaining oral and overall health.
