Treatment of Periodontal Disease

While the most common cause of periodontal disease is plaque, a number of other factors, including poorly fitting bridges, misaligned teeth, and defective fillings can make the condition significantly worse.  Periodontal disease is seldom painful, and is usually free of any obvious signs or symptoms.  However, if left untreated, periodontal disease can progress to the point the supporting bone is destroyed and tooth loss could occur.  For this reason, early detection and treatment of the disease is absolutely essential.

At The Dental Center, we can help detect and treat any signs of periodontal disease before it becomes a major threat to your oral health.
