What is Periodontics?
Periodontics is a dental specialty focused on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases and conditions that affect the supporting structures of the teeth—primarily the gums, bone, and connective tissues.
Key areas of periodontics include:
Gum disease treatment: Managing conditions like gingivitis (mild inflammation of the gums) and periodontitis (advanced gum disease that can lead to tooth loss).
Surgical procedures: Such as gum grafting to cover exposed tooth roots, bone regeneration to rebuild lost bone, and pocket reduction surgery to reduce the depth of gum pockets.
Dental implant placement: Periodontists often perform the surgical placement of dental implants as a permanent replacement for missing teeth.
Aesthetic and functional procedures: Improving gum aesthetics (like treating a gummy smile) and ensuring proper support for teeth and dental restorations.
