Get Better Looking & Better Feeling Gums
Gum disease is a serious oral problem that can sneak up on you if you’re not careful. Symptoms of gum disease include red, puffy gums and bleeding when you brush or floss. However, in the early stages of gum disease, there often aren’t any obvious symptoms; infection can lurk silently beneath your gumline without your knowing it.
Routine dental cleanings and exams every six months will go a long way toward catching and treating a gum infection before it has the chance to cause big problems. If we do detect gum problems during your exam, we offer “deep cleaning” with scaling and root planing that will remove the infection and help your gums begin to heal.
To ensure that your treatment is comfortable, we can first apply a special gel or rinse that will numb your mouth so you don’t feel anything. Then, we’ll remove (scale) the built-up tartar and bacteria from around and below the gumline. Next, we’ll smooth (plane) your tooth roots to make it more difficult for bacteria to recollect there.
Depending on your circumstances, this type of gum disease treatment may need to be repeated every few months. We can also give you tips on how to brush and floss most effectively at home to help prevent gum disease.
If you think your gums could be suffering, call us today at (417) 581-3600 for Ozark gum disease treatment. We’ll help keep your smile intact!
