Periodontal Disease - Silent And Deadly
Periodontal
disease can go on for years without pain and without detection unless
specific examination procedures are performed. Visual oral examination by itself (even by a dentist) will not reliably detect periodontal disease until it has reached an advanced stage.
Early detection and adequate diagnosis require measurement of pockets (the crevice between the tooth and gum) with a periodontal probe. At Falmouth Dental Arts effective prevention and treatment is available, but the damage caused as the disease progresses is irreversible.
Early detection and treatment is critical to prevent tooth loss and disfigurement. Although the procedure is simple, painless and requires only a few minutes, millions of American adults have never had it done.
Some signs of periodontal disease are: bleeding gums, redness of gum tissue,
swelling of gums around the teeth, breath odor, receding gums, mobility
of teeth.
Call our office at (207) 781-5900 to schedule exam for periodontal disease today.
