Cleaning and periodontal treatment
We offer a comprehensive dental hygiene service. This ranges from routine maintenance of healthy mouths to treatment of periodontal (gum) disease.
A dental prophylaxis is the removal of plaque, bacteria, calculus and extrinsic stains.
Sometimes a number of factors (oral hygiene practices at home, systemic diseases, genetics, pregnancy) can cause a periodontal disease: infection of the gums due to the continued presence of harmful bacteria in the mouth.
Symptoms of periodontal disease include red, swollen, tender gums, bleeding while brushing/flossing or receding gums. In these cases a periodontal treatment is necessary.
