Periodontal treatment refers to the care of your gums and supporting bone structure, which form the foundation of your smile. Without healthy gums, even the strongest teeth can be at risk.
Gum disease (periodontitis) is a common but serious condition caused by bacteria and plaque buildup that inflames and damages gum tissue. If left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss and has been linked to systemic health issues such as heart disease and diabetes.
