Oshawa Periodontics
Are you suffering from gum disease in Oshawa? Cove Dentistry can help, thanks to our talented Oshawa periodontics team. Periodontics is the part of dentistry that deals with the gums and bone surrounding your teeth.
It's essential that your teeth have a solid foundation of healthy gums and strong bone. Periodontal disease (gum disease) is a chronic bacterial infection that affects the gums and bone supporting your teeth.
Symptoms of Periodontal Disease:
- Swollen, puffy and bleeding gums
- Spaces between teeth
- Tooth sensitivity
- Bad breath
- Loose teeth
If not adequately treated, periodontal disease can result in loose teeth and ultimately tooth loss. Early detection and treatment are the key to successful treatment of gum disease, so make an appointment with your Oshawa periodontics team today.
Preventing Periodontal Disease:
- Brush and floss your teeth daily
- See your dentist regularly for professional cleaning and monitoring
- If diagnosed with periodontal disease, get treatment early
