What is Gingivitis? (Early Gum Disease)

Gingivitis is the early stage of gum disease, Gingivitis is the early stage of gum disease, caused by plaque buildup along the gumline. Because it is often painless, many patients do not realize they have it until symptoms appear.

Common signs of gingivitis include:

  • Red, swollen, or tender gums
  • Gum inflammation
  • Bleeding while brushing or flossing
  • Bad breath
  • Plaque and tartar buildup

The good news is that gingivitis is reversible with professional dental cleanings, good oral hygiene, and early treatment.

What is Periodontitis? (Advanced Gum Disease)

When left untreated, If gingivitis can progress to periodontitis, a serious gum infection that damages the soft tissue and bone supporting your teeth.

Signs of periodontitis include:

  • Deep pockets between teeth and gums
  • Persistent bad breath
  • Receding gums
  • Loose or shifting teeth
  • Gum abscess or infection

Periodontitis is a chronic disease and is not reversible. But with prompt treatment its progression can be stopped to prevent further spread of the disease.

Bacterial Toxins in plaque build up irritate the gums and stimulate a chronic inflammatory response, leading to the destruction of the supporting tissues and bone. Gums separate from the teeth, forming pockets that can become infected. As the disease progresses, with further bone loss, teeth become loose or may develop an abscess and need to be removed.

Research has also linked untreated periodontal disease to systemic health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, certain cancers and other inflammatory conditions.

How can we treat Periodontal Disease?

At Smile Haven, we’ll perform a comprehensive periodontal evaluation and recommend the best treatment plan to restore and maintain your oral health.

Scaling and Root Planing:

  • It is a non-surgical periodontal therapy, commonly known as “deep cleaning” designed to treat periodontal disease and improve the health of your gums and teeth.
  • It is a periodontal treatment that scales beneath the gumline to remove plaque, tartar and other bacterial toxins from periodontal pockets.
  • Root planing smooths the tooth root surfaces to prevent the reattachment of harmful toxins and promote gum tissue healing.

Localized Antibiotic Therapy:

  • To enhance healing and support faster recovery, localized antibiotics may be placed directly into periodontal pockets to further reduce bacteria, control infection and inflammation.

Periodontal Maintenance Therapy:

  • After initial Scaling and Root Planing treatment, ongoing regular periodontal maintenance cleanings every 3-4 months and good at-home oral care are crucial to prevent relapse and maintaining optimal gum health.
  • Combined with proper home care, maintenance therapy helps keep your gums stable and healthy.
