\"ThePeriodontal, or gum disease is estimated to affect around 50% of American adults over the age of thirty, making it a very prevalent condition. The problem with gum disease is that many folks aren\u2019t even aware that they have it because there\u2019s not a lot of pain or very many symptoms associated with it \u2013 at first. If left untreated, however, gum disease can not only lead to bone and tooth loss, it also contributes to a number of other serious health concerns such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and strokes. This is not a condition to take lightly! While there is no cure for gum disease, modern dentistry offers some advanced therapies that can help you effectively manage the condition. Here\u2019s some more information about gum disease therapy in Parma Heights.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

How Do I Know If I Have Gum Disease?<\/h3>\n

Gingivitis is the early stage of gum disease and in this stage you may notice that you have chronic bad breath, gums that are red and swollen and bleed when you brush. The good news is that this stage can often be treated with a thorough professional cleaning and improved home care. Your hygienist can give you tips and techniques that will improve your homecare routine and products you can use to help reduce bacteria and acids in your mouth.<\/p>\n

Periodontitis is the advanced stage of gum disease, and it\u2019s in this stage that the damage starts to occur. When plaque descends below the gum line the bacteria begins to erode your bone. Without proper support from your bone, your teeth are at risk to fall out. This stage of gum disease requires a deeper cleaning that reaches below the gum line. Laser therapy<\/a> also helps to treat periodontal disease in this stage.<\/p>\n

What is Dental Laser Therapy?<\/h3>\n

Lasers are revolutionizing the way that infected tissues are removed and accelerating the healing process after treating gum disease. The dental laser uses light and heat to target and remove damaged tissues below the gum line with great accuracy and without harming healthy tissue. Laser therapy is much less invasive than periodontal surgery. The laser is extremely sterile and it creates a seal after removing the damaged tissue that helps the tissue to heal more easily and more quickly.<\/p>\n
