Periodontal Treatment

Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is one of the most common oral health issues, and if left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss and even affect your overall health. At Logan Reserve Dental, we provide personalised periodontal treatment in Logan Reserve, QLD, to help protect gums tissue and restore oral health.

What Is Periodontal Disease?

Periodontal disease is an infection of the gums typically caused by bacteria and plaque build-up. It often starts as gingivitis (red, swollen or bleeding gums) but can progress to periodontitis, where the gums pull away from the teeth and bone loss begins.

Common signs include:

Gums that bleed easily when brushing or flossing
Persistent bad breath
Swollen, tender or receding gums
Loose or shifting teeth

The good news? With the right care, gum disease can be treated, and in its early stages, even reversed. *Results and treatment times vary.

The Benefits of Periodontal Treatment

Healthy gums are essential for strong teeth and overall wellbeing, which is why periodontal care matters.

Stops Gum Disease

Treatment can help control and reverse gum disease, preventing tooth loss and protecting your oral health.

Supports Overall Health

Healthy gums can reduce inflammation in the body, lowering risks linked to heart disease and diabetes.

Freshens Breath

Treating gum disease can eliminate bacteria that cause chronic bad breath, giving you a fresher smile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is periodontal treatment important?

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.

Periodontal Treatment in Logan Reserve

Treatment begins with professional cleanings and scaling to remove plaque and tartar. In more advanced cases, procedures like root planing, local antibiotic therapy or even advanced laser treatments like LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) may be recommended. LANAP uses laser technology to gently target diseased tissue while leaving healthy tissue intact, promoting faster healing and less discomfort compared to traditional gum surgery.

Signs of Gum Disease

Signs you may need periodontal treatment include:

Bleeding gums
Bad breath
Gum recession
Loose teeth

In many cases, the earlier gum disease is caught, the easier it is to manage. Regular check-ups and good oral hygiene at home are also important in preventing periodontal issues.

Why Periodontal Treatment Matters

Healthy gums don’t just keep your teeth in place, they also play a significant role in your overall well-being. Studies show a connection between gum disease and health conditions like heart disease, diabetes and stroke. Treating gum disease can help protect not only oral health but general health, too.

Periodontal Treatments We Offer

Professional Deep Cleaning (Scaling and Root Planing) — We remove plaque and tartar from above and below the gum line, then smooth the root surfaces to help gums reattach to the teeth.
Maintenance and Monitoring — Regular periodontal maintenance appointments help prevent the disease from returning.
Education and At-Home Care — We’ll guide you with personalised tips for brushing, flossing and lifestyle habits to keep your gums healthy between visits.
