Periodontal disease can quickly return

If you have been diagnosed with gingivitis or periodontal disease, there is no time to wait. Eliminating gingivitis or periodontal disease from your gums and mouth is essential to having a healthy smile. If you've recently had a procedure to address gingivitis concerns or periodontal disease, don't wait another year to see the dentist again.

Plaque and tartar start to form on the teeth and gums almost immediately. Even if you've just completed a treatment, patients need to be focused on periodontal maintenance so that the gum disease does not return.

Procedures such as scaling and root planing should be performed at regular intervals following any periodontal treatment. Suggested maintenance includes a consistent preventative plan at home, the continued removal of plaque and tartar, additional scaling and tooth planing treatments, and polishing.
