Periodontal Treatment
While most patients are more concerned with their teeth than the possibility of periodontal disease, the health of the gums is a significant part of achieving whole-body wellness.
Without proper care, bacteria left to accumulate in the mouth can cause severe symptoms such as gum recession, infections, the shifting of surrounding teeth, and—in the most severe stage of gum disease—possible tooth loss. The easiest way to be proactive about your gum health is to brush and floss twice a day, as well as to undergo professional dental cleanings regularly.
At Summit Dental, we take a gentle approach to periodontal care and prioritize conservative techniques whenever possible to restore the complete health of the gums and gingiva.
