Should I Start Seeing A Periodontist?

Woman unsure if she needs treatment periodontics concept

Knowing that your smile is healthy is important. For people who frequently struggle with gum disease, it can feel as though good health is always out of reach. Is there something you can do to put this problem behind you? Many who suffer from persistent problems will develop a more advanced form of gum disease that requires the attention of a specialist. FLX Periodontics provides ongoing support to those whose infections have progressed past the point of gingivitis. Whether you have active worries because of problems like tissue recession, discoloration, or tooth loss or you want to prevent these issues, we can help by providing a personalized approach to care.

Gum Disease Can Have More Impact On Your Health Than You Realize

What can gum disease do to affect your well-being? If you struggle with poor periodontal health and do not have the right treatment, your risk for tooth loss increases. Complications from advanced gum disease lead all other causes when it comes to tooth loss, as bacteria can cause worrying tissue damage and attachment loss in time. You can also experience unattractive changes to your appearance due to discoloration and tissue recession. An addition concern is the potential link between gum disease and general health concerns like heart disease.
