What is Periodontics?

Periodontics is the branch of dentistry that deals with the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases that affect the gums and supporting tooth structures, including gum disease and bone loss.

Our Periodontal Services On Danforth

Some of our most common treatments include:

  1. Scaling and Root Planing: This is a non-surgical procedure designed to remove plaque and tartar buildup from below the gum line.
  2. Gum Grafting: If your gums have receded due to gum disease, a gum graft can help restore lost tissue.
  3. Pocket Reduction Surgery: For advanced cases of gum disease, we may recommend pocket reduction surgery to clean the pockets and reduce the size of the infected areas.

Common Periodontal Conditions You Should Be Aware Of

Some of the most common gum conditions we treat on Danforth include:

  1. Gingivitis: This is the earliest stage of gum disease, where gums become inflamed and may bleed when brushing or flossing.
  2. Periodontitis: If gingivitis is left untreated, it can develop into periodontitis. This condition leads to infection of the gums and bone loss.
  3. Gum Recession: As gum disease progresses, the gums can begin to recede, exposing the roots of your teeth.
  4. Pocket Formation: In advanced stages of gum disease, deep pockets form between your teeth and gums.
