Gum Disease Treatment in Land O'Lakes: Detect and Treat It Early
Many people in the Land O'Lakes area may be at risk for or already suffer from gum disease. What does periodontal (gum) disease do to your mouth and body? How can it be treated? What can a dentist like Dr. Jay Nelson do for you?
Gum disease occurs most frequently when trapped bacteria gets caught in the gums and may lead to bone loss in the mouth or even infection that affects the patient's heart. That's why Dr. Nelson may notice some early signs of gum disease such as bad breath, loose teeth, bleeding gums, and pockets (extra space in between the tooth and the gum). If the periodontal infection is invasive or pockets are quite large, he may suggest surgical treatment - which can often regenerate decaying bone matter. If you are suffering from only a minor form of gingivitis, Dr. Jay Nelson may perform scaling or root planing, which involves removing the plaque in these deep pockets.
There's no such thing as gum disease that can be ignored. Even if it's not painful in the beginning, the greater concern is the long-term effect that gum disease can have on your mouth and body. That's why Dr. Jay Nelson and his caring attitude and years of experience can literally save your beautiful smile - and perhaps even your life! So call Jay A Nelson DMD or complete the online form to make a gum disease treatment appointment!
Although often not painful until it's widespread, gum disease such as gingivitis is a serious condition that can lead to bad breath, bleeding gums, and even bone loss in the jaw or heart attacks. Early treatment of infected gums and preventative screenings at our Land O'Lakes office can save your smile - and maybe even your life!
