Periodontal Disease Treatment

Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, is a chronic inflammatory condition that affects the gums and supporting bone around the teeth. Without treatment, periodontal disease can lead to bone loss, tooth mobility, and eventual tooth loss.

At Mayflower Periodontics & Implant Center, we specialize in diagnosing and treating periodontal disease using advanced, evidence-based techniques to preserve your natural teeth and protect your long-term oral health.

Symptoms of Periodontal Disease

Common signs include:

Bleeding gums when brushing or flossing
Gum recession or teeth appearing longer
Red, swollen, or tender gums
Persistent bad breath
Loose or shifting teeth
Deep periodontal pockets

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, evaluation by a periodontist is recommended.
