What is Periodontics?
Periodontics is the dental specialty focused on the health of your gums and the supporting structures of your teeth, including the bone and connective tissues. It plays a vital role in maintaining your oral health by preventing, diagnosing, and treating gum diseases and conditions that affect these essential areas. Healthy gums are crucial not only for a beautiful smile but also for overall health, as gum disease can lead to serious complications such as tooth loss and bone damage. Periodontics involves a range of services from routine cleanings to advanced treatments, ensuring that your gums and supporting structures remain strong and disease-free, ultimately helping you enjoy a vibrant and healthy smile.
Periodontitis
Periodontitis is a severe gum disease that damages the soft tissue and bone supporting your teeth. It starts with plaque buildup, which can harden into tartar if not removed. If tartar isn’t treated, it can cause inflammation and infection in your gums, leading to periodontitis.
