Be aware that periodontal disease can return quickly

Time is of the essence when a patient is diagnosed with gingivitis or periodontal disease. Removing gingivitis or periodontal disease from your gums and mouth is essential to good oral health and a bright smile. And if you have recently had a procedure to address gingivitis concerns or periodontal disease, don’t wait another year to see the dentist at Apopka Smiles again.

Plaque and tartar start to form on the teeth and gums almost immediately, even after a thorough cleaning. Patients need to be focused on periodontal maintenance so the gum disease does not return. We offer procedures such as scaling and root planing that 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 with regular cleanings, and additional treatments such as tooth polishing.

Call our team at Apopka Smiles 407-788-6888 to get more information on periodontal maintenance.
