Beyond the Surface: The Importance of Periodontal Health
Healthy gums mean a healthy heart. Learn how the periodontal treatments at Crown Dental Group protect your smile and your long-term wellness.
Many patients focus solely on their teeth, but your gums are the foundation of your entire smile. At Crown Dental, our Periodontal Treatment focuses on preventing and treating gum disease before it impacts your overall health.
The Stages of Gum Health
Healthy gums should be firm and pink. If you notice bleeding when you floss, you may be in the early stages of gingivitis. If left untreated, this can progress to periodontitis, which can cause teeth to loosen or fall out.
How We Help
Our Preventative Program includes deep cleanings (scaling and root planing) to remove tartar from below the gum line. By catching these issues early, we can protect your smile and reduce the risk of heart disease and diabetes linked to oral inflammation.
