Periodontics in North Vancouver
When we see patients dealing with gum disease, we will often refer them to a periodontic specialist if their condition is quite severe. Gum disease is arguably the leading cause of tooth loss, which is why it’s so important to stop it in its tracks with the right periodontal treatment options as soon as possible. If caught early enough, gum disease is easily reversible with gum grafts, crown or tooth lengthening, pocket reduction, and root planing and scaling.
What Does a Periodontist Do?
Periodontists are specialists in dealing with all things inflammatory when it comes to gum health. They play a crucial role in helping patients maintain good oral health because gum disease is often the root cause of many serious dental conditions. A Periodontist will typically work closely with patients who have had dental implants or other appliances that require healthy gums in order to work properly.
