Welcome to North Brooklyn Dental Care, where your gum health is our priority. If your gums aren’t feeling their regular selves, we want to get you back on track. Our friendly team is dedicated to providing comprehensive treatments for gum disease and gingivitis. Let’s explore how we can help you achieve healthier gums and a confident smile.
Gum disease, also called periodontal disease, is more than just inflammation; it’s a progressive condition that poses risks to your overall oral health. Caused by a buildup of plaque and bacteria, this condition can advance and contribute to serious issues such as gum recession, tooth loss, and even impact your systemic health.
At North Brooklyn Dental Care, we place a paramount emphasis on early detection and effective treatment to safeguard your gums and ensure the longevity of your smile. Gingivitis, the initial stage of gum disease, is entirely reversible with timely intervention. Our team offers comprehensive treatments that not only halt the progression of the disease but also restore your gums to a healthier state. By addressing gingivitis early, we can prevent the development of more severe periodontal issues, preserving both your oral and overall health.
Being aware of the symptoms of gum disease is crucial for early intervention. Look out for:
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s essential to schedule a consultation for a thorough examination and personalized treatment plan.
Our comprehensive gum therapy is designed to address various stages of gum disease. For patients at the earliest stages of gum disease, refining oral habits and regular dental cleanings can be enough to reverse symptoms. Bleeding gums when brushing or inflammation are the most common symptoms at this stage.
If gum disease has progressed further, we may recommend a more thorough deep dental cleaning.
Also called scaling and root planing, this periodontic service removes plaque and tartar from below the gumline. By removing this hard to reach plaque closer to a tooth’s root, we can stop gum recession and persistent bad breath. This can be combined with antibiotic treatment to target and eliminate bacteria contributing to gum disease. We will carefully assess your gum health and recommend a tailored treatment plan to address your specific needs.
Maintaining healthy gums is a partnership between you and our dental team. Here are some easy tips:
