When should you see a periodontist?

- Bleeding gums.

- Jawbone loss.
- Painful chewing.

You might not notice the first signs of gum disease near you, so it's important to visit the dentist every six months for cleanings and exams.
What is Periodontics?
Periodontics in Gaithersburg is a dental speciality focused on preventing, diagnosing, and treating disorders affecting the supporting and surrounding tissues of the teeth, as well as maintaining the health, function, and aesthetics of these structures and tissues. Gum disease, which can become a major issue if left untreated, is treated by periodontics. We offer dental exams to assess the soft tissues and underlying bones that support your teeth.
What should I expect during Gum Disease Treatment?
Your Gaithersburg periodontist may recommend comprehensive dental cleaning (scaling and root planing), antibiotics, and healthy lifestyle modifications based on the type of gum disease you have.
You may also need surgery, bone grafts, or laser treatment for gum disease. With bone and gum grafting, damaged soft and hard parts are fixed so that problems don't happen again.
