Periodontal Treatment
The main cause of periodontal disease is plaque, a sticky colorless film that constantly forms on your teeth. Daily home care, including proper tooth brushing and flossing, is essential to prevent plaque buildup. If plaque is not removed, it can harden into a substance called calculus (also known as tartar) in less than two days. Calculus is so hard it can only be removed through professional tooth cleaning.
Periodontal treatment is an investment in your health. Treating periodontal problems will help you achieve a healthy mouth and help prevent tooth loss. In fact, with prompt treatment, proper home care, and regular dental visits, a great majority of patients can keep their teeth for a lifetime. |
