What Is Gum Disease?

Gum disease is caused by plaque, a sticky film of bacteria that constantly forms on the teeth. These bacteria produce toxins that can damage the gums and supporting structures of the teeth.

Stages of Gum Disease

Gingivitis

Periodontitis

Advanced Periodontitis

How Can I Prevent Gum Disease?

Early gum disease can often be reversed with consistent brushing, flossing, and professional care.

Treatments

Plaque Removal

Brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings help remove plaque that causes gum disease.

Scaling

Plaque and tartar are removed from the tooth surface and roots, often combined with root planing.

Root Planing

The root surfaces are smoothed to help the gums heal and reattach to the tooth. This may require multiple visits.

Flap Surgery

The gum is lifted to remove infection and clean the area. The bone may be reshaped, and the gum is repositioned and sutured for healing.

Warning Signs of Gum Disease

If you notice any of the following symptoms, contact your dentist as soon as possible:
