A periodontal examination thoroughly assesses your gum health and its supporting structures. This process includes measuring the depth of gum pockets, evaluating gum inflammation, and identifying any signs of gum disease. It is a crucial diagnostic tool for detecting early-stage gum issues and determining appropriate interventions to prevent further oral health complications.
The frequency of periodontal examinations depends on individual oral health status and risk factors for gum disease. Individuals with healthy gums should undergo a periodontal examination annually during their routine dental checkups. However, more frequent examinations may be necessary for those with a history of gum disease or heightened risk factors.
Dental professionals use a small probe to measure gum pocket depth during a periodontal examination. While this procedure may induce minor discomfort or sensitivity, it is generally well-tolerated by patients. Our team prioritizes your comfort throughout the examination process.
Upon detecting gum disease during a periodontal examination, our dental professionals devise a tailored treatment plan to address the condition effectively. Treatment options may include scaling and root planning, antibiotic therapy, or surgical interventions.
Absolutely. Maintaining consistent oral hygiene practices is paramount in preventing gum disease. Regular brushing and flossing, combined with routine dental visits and professional cleanings, help eliminate plaque and tartar buildup, thereby reducing the risk of developing gum disease.
