Why Seek Periodontal Therapy?

Periodontal disease, or gum disease, refers to a range of inflammatory conditions affecting the tissues that support your teeth. You might experience this condition because of harmful bacteria that accumulate in plaque and tartar around the teeth and gums. Since it often develops without pain, gum disease can go unnoticed until it progresses to more severe stages. A visit to Dennis Dental Care in Ellet, OH, professional cleanings, and good oral hygiene are key to preventing and managing periodontal disease.

The Importance of Maintaining Good Oral Health

Having a healthy smile goes way beyond the condition of your teeth and gums; it's a crucial part of your overall well-being. Recent studies have highlighted the link between periodontal disease to adult tooth loss and several serious health conditions like heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and respiratory issues.

At Dennis Dental Care, we focus on the necessity of preventing, detecting, and treating periodontal diseases as early as possible. We are committed to providing patients with the support, guidance, and quality treatment necessary to keep their periodontal health in top condition.

What Is Gingivitis?

Gingivitis is the early stage of gum disease, often developing without significant pain but showing noticeable symptoms. Common signs include red, swollen, and tender gums that may bleed while brushing.

The good news is that we can reverse it with prompt treatment. At this stage, although the gums are inflamed, the overall health remains largely intact. Without intervention, however, your condition can progress into more severe gum disease, leading to lasting damage.

Preventing and treating gingivitis involves maintaining good oral hygiene, going for deep dental cleanings, regular dental checkups, and consistent at-home care. Addressing it early with our assistance can stop the disease from worsening.
