Periodontal Treatment

At Vitelli Comprehensive Dentistry, we understand the importance of maintaining healthy gums for overall oral health. Our periodontal treatment services in Germantown, MD, are designed to address all stages of gum disease with a personalized and patient-focused approach.

Understanding Periodontal Disease

What is Periodontal Disease?

Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, is a common inflammatory condition affecting the tissues surrounding the teeth. It is caused by the buildup of plaque and bacteria, leading to symptoms like swollen, bleeding gums, bad breath, and, in severe cases, tooth loss.

Importance of Early Detection

Early detection of periodontal disease is crucial for effective treatment. At Vitelli Comprehensive Dentistry, we prioritize preventive care and early intervention to halt the progression of gum disease and preserve your natural smile.

Our Periodontal Treatment Services

Non-Surgical Treatments

We offer a range of non-surgical treatments to manage and treat periodontal disease effectively:

• Scaling and Root Planing: This deep cleaning procedure removes plaque and tartar from below the gum line, helping to reduce inflammation and promote healing.
• Perio Protect: A non-invasive treatment that utilizes custom-made trays to deliver medication directly to the gums, targeting the bacteria that cause periodontal disease and promoting healthier gums.

Surgical Treatments

For advanced cases of periodontal disease, surgical intervention may be necessary:

• Dental Implants: If tooth loss has occurred due to periodontal disease, we offer dental implants to restore function and aesthetics.

Maintenance and Prevention

Maintaining gum health is essential to prevent the recurrence of periodontal disease:

• Regular Check-Ups: Routine dental visits allow us to monitor your gum health and catch any issues early.
• Oral Hygiene Education: We provide personalized advice on maintaining good oral hygiene at home to keep your gums healthy.
