How do you know if you need periodontal treatment?

The health of your gums is as important as the health of your teeth, but often goes unnoticed. The periodontal disease can progress silently, without causing pain in its early stages, so identifying symptoms early is key to avoiding major complications.

Pay attention to these warning signs:

  • Gums that are red, swollen or bleed when brushing or flossing. This is one of the first symptoms of gingivitis. Although it may seem minor, it is a clear sign of inflammation caused by the accumulation of bacterial plaque.
  • Persistent bad breath (halitosis). Bad odor is not always solved with rinses. It may be due to bacterial growth under the gums.
  • Loose teeth or sensation of mobility. This may indicate that the disease has reached deeper structures, such as the bone supporting the teeth.
  • Retraction of gums. When the gums "pull up" and expose the root of the tooth, it not only affects esthetics, but also increases the risk of sensitivity and root caries.
  • Dental sensitivity to cold, heat or acidic foods. It is usually due to the exposure of areas of the tooth that are normally protected by gingiva or enamel.
  • Changes in the bite or new spaces between teeth. The gums and the bone supporting the teeth may be altered, affecting dental alignment.

Local Antibiotic Therapy

Precise application of antimicrobials in periodontal pockets to fight infection in a localized manner, accelerating recovery and avoiding the unnecessary use of systemic antibiotics.

Periodontal Surgery

In more advanced cases, we perform surgical procedures to reduce the depth of periodontal pockets, remove infected tissues and regenerate bone or gum where possible.

Gum Grafts

When the gum has receded and the root of the tooth is exposed, we perform tissue grafts to recover natural coverage, improve esthetics and reduce tooth sensitivity.
