Periodontal Treatment (Gum Care) in Sherwood Park
Periodontal treatment is the treatment and prevention of gum disease — one of the most common dental conditions. Left untreated, gum disease can cause the loss of teeth.
Gum diseases range from simple gum inflammation to serious conditions resulting in major damage to the soft tissue and bone that support your teeth.
At Sherwood Park Dental, we always start with the least invasive options — those of which are non-surgical. In more serious cases, surgery may be necessary to restore healthy tissue and bone.
With proper treatment and consistent maintenance appointments, gum disease can be managed effectively. For more information about our periodontal treatments, please call or visit Sherwood Park Dental today.
