Gum health encompasses not only your teeth but also the gums that support them. Gum diseases (periodontal diseases) are among the most common threats to oral health and, if left untreated, can lead to tooth loss. At Prosmile, we provide comprehensive periodontology services to help you maintain a healthy oral structure.
What is Periodontology?
Periodontology is the branch of dentistry that focuses on maintaining, diagnosing, and treating the health of the gums and other supporting tissues around the teeth. Problems such as gum inflammation, gum recession, and bone loss supporting the teeth are treated by our periodontology specialists.
What Are the Symptoms of Gum Disease?
Gum diseases are often painless in their early stages, making early diagnosis crucial. If you experience any of the following symptoms, it may be time to consult a periodontology specialist:
- Gum bleeding (especially when brushing or flossing)
- Red, swollen, and tender gums
- Gum recession and teeth appearing longer
- Persistent bad breath or bad taste in the mouth
- Loose teeth or changes in tooth alignment
