Gum Disease Treatment Albany
Stop Gum Disease From Becoming An Issue
Looking for gum disease treatment in Albany? We offer a range of treatments to stop gum disease from progressing to advanced periodontal disease. Schedule an appointment to find out more.
Periodontal Disease is Preventable. Act quickly.
Gum disease is the mildest form of periodontal disease, which is a chronic condition that destroys the gum tissue and the bone that supports the teeth. The good news is that gum disease is entirely treatable if caught early enough. The bad news is that if it has progressed to the bone, it is no longer curable, although it can be managed. If you have gum disease, Albany dentist Dr Nohra can help.
The best way of preventing gum disease is with regular twice-daily brushing and flossing, supplemented with visits to the dentist for check-ups and professional teeth cleaning.
FAQ’S
How do I know if I have gum disease?
Unfortunately, gum disease is silent, and you are unlikely to feel any pain or notice any signs or symptoms in the early stages of the disease. This means it can progress unchecked, which is why you should regularly see a dentist, who knows how to detect the signs.
If you have bleeding gums when you brush your teeth, contact us for gum disease treatment in Albany.
What if gum disease isn't treated?
Gum disease will progress to an advanced form of periodontal disease if not treated. This is when the supportive tissues surrounding a tooth, including the gum and bone, are eroded, resulting in tooth loss.
Although this disease progression isn't painful, you may notice your gums receding, bad breath and gum abscesses—painful swellings near the tooth that may ooze pus. Don't delay if you have gum disease in Albany—schedule an appointment at Amity Dental Centre.
