Periodontal Office in Rockville
If you are looking for a periodontal practice where you will be able to receive treatment for gum disease, we hope you will visit us at Dental Implants & Periodontology of Rockville Center. At our periodontal and implant practice, our expert periodontist, Dr. Hasday, will be able to treat you for gum disease and provide other periodontal treatments. At our
periodontal office in Rockville, patients can also receive dental implants to replace missing teeth which have been lost or gum disease or other dental problems.
Gum disease is generally caused by poor oral hygiene. If you have a buildup of plaque and tartar on your teeth, it will encourage the development of deep pockets to form between your teeth and gums. Periodontal disease can also be caused by the use of certain medications or be encouraged by certain medical conditions. Symptoms of gum disease can include: redness of the gums; bleeding of the gums while brushing or flossing; a receding gum line; teeth becoming loose; constant bad breath; or even the development of mouth sores. If you have gingivitis, a precursor to gum disease, our dentist may recommend that you have a regular teeth cleaning to help your gums return to good health. However, if you have mild gum disease and deep pockets have formed between your teeth and gums, a periodontal scaling and root planing treatment will help to clean out all debris from the pockets and help your gums to heal once again. Sometimes this treatment needs to be repeated, and our periodontist may recommend that you have maintenance treatments in order to help keep your gums healthy. If a periodontal scaling and root planing treatment is not effective, you may need to have gum surgery at our
periodontal office in Rockville.
