What is gum disease?
Gum disease affects gums, bone and other supporting tissues of teeth. Dental plaque, which is a sticky colorless film of bacteria build-up on the teeth, is the major cause of gum disease. Long-standing gum disease can result in tooth loss.
Prevention of gum disease starts with regular and correct oral hygiene. For some people this can be quite difficult to do, so we give precise instructions tailored for each individual. We find patients have better long-term dental health due to this customised approach. As part of our ongoing, regular dental maintenance program we perform thorough tooth scaling, polishing and oral hygiene advice to help maintain the health of the gums.
