Protect Your Oral Health with Our Comprehensive Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease is a common cause of adult tooth loss. Unmanaged, it can wreak havoc elsewhere in the body, too. Toxic bacteria in diseased gum tissue can be inhaled or ingested. Multiple medical journal articles have linked gum disease to other health problems like coronary disease, respiratory disease, and stroke.
Good oral hygiene is the key to beating gum disease. However, additional dental treatment may be necessary. A scale and clean is a periodontal procedure where the teeth and gums are cleaned with specialized dental instruments. You can also have scaling and root planning to address more severe gum disease.
Joondanna Family Dental offers comprehensive gum disease treatment, which includes scale and clean, scaling and root planing, and periodontal surgery. Contact our friendly team of dentists so we can address your concerns and get treatment underway.
