In today’s blog, your Brooklyn, NY, periodontist and dental implant expert talks about helping smiles with our specialized hygiene services.
Signs You Have Poor Oral Hygiene
How do you know if you have poor periodontal health that needs attention? For some, the presence of the disease could be detected by your general dentist and you could be referred to our office for treatment. However, if you encounter these changes on your own you can reach out to us directly for periodontic treatment. If you have sore, red, and bleeding gums, or if you notice recession that makes teeth appear long or even swelling, let us know. These are examples of common periodontal disease symptoms, and care is needed to treat and manage the issue so you avoid worsening discomfort and the risk of tooth loss!
Treatment
Our team can conduct treatment to help manage the issue and keep your smile intact. If we diagnose the presence of the disease in the early stages, we can offer a scaling and root planing to remove harmful buildup from the teeth and roots, so we can then control it with our specialized hygiene services. If the issue is in a more advanced state, we could offer dental lasers to remove diseased tissues and reshape the gum line for better oral health and improved smile esthetics too.
Specialized Hygiene Services
With specialized hygiene services, our team can control inflammation and disease following treatment, and help protect your smile from symptoms. This can also be helpful to ensure your dental implant placement area heals and your new teeth have the potential to last for decades to come. Our team will take periodic x-rays to assess the state of the disease and watch for worrisome symptoms. We also conduct cleanings every three to four months to remove plaque and tartar. We polish the teeth to keep bacteria in check, and also watch for issues like oral cancer. The goal is to keep your smile healthy and comfortable for years to come!
