Our dentists are proud to offer leading gum disease and periodontal treatment in Barrie, ON. Our team diligently identifies underlying gum issues, prioritizing early intervention and thorough periodontal therapy.
What is Periodontal Disease?
Gum disease is the accumulation of bacteria and inflammation of the gum line, often caused by poor oral hygiene, genetic factors, aging, or underlying health conditions. Left untreated, periodontal disease can contribute to additional health concerns including diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.
Symptoms of Gum Disease
While the symptoms of periodontal disease aren't always apparent at the beginning, signs like movement in the teeth, tooth and gum pain, bleeding in the gums and bad breath indicate it's time to see our dentists for a periodontal check-up appointment.
Periodontal Deep Cleaning
To treat gum disease, we offer Scaling and Root Planing (SRP), a deep cleaning procedure for addressing gum inflammation. This process involves thorough cleaning below the gum line to eliminate plaque and bacteria and promote healthy gums. Our dentists use top technologies to ensure every periodontal deep cleaning is as comfortable and effective as possible!
