Moreno Valley Gum Disease Treatment: Identify and Treat It Early
Why see a dentist like John Shea, Olivewood Plaza Dental in Moreno Valley? What kind of gum disease treatment options can he offer? What would the effects of periodontal (gum) disease be on your mouth and body if you neglect your gums?
At Olivewood Plaza Dental we know that the most common cause of gum disease is trapped bacteria, and that regular periodontal treatment can prevent not only reoccurring or new cases of gum disease, it can even prevent heart attacks brought on by this potentially invasive bacterial infection. It can also help prevent bone loss or decay in the mouth! Dr. Shea has had extensive training and experience to offer the latest and most effective gum disease treatment options.
Bleeding gums, bad breath, loose teeth, and pockets (extra space between teeth and gums) are just a few signs of gum disease such as gingivitis. Dr. Shea can offer you non-surgical gum disease treatment options such as scaling and root planing (removing plaque from deep pockets or abscesses) which, as bacteria and plaque will continue to build over time, require regular appointments to avoid full-scale gingivitis. If the gum disease is very extensive or the pockets lend themselves to quick infection or decay, Dr. John Shea may suggest periodontal surgery to correct these spaces and/or regrow any missing bone matter.

Gum disease such as gingivitis can oftentimes be a "silent" invader - even a silent killer - that leads to bleeding gums, bad breath, bone loss in the jaw, or even heart attacks. Regular screenings at our Moreno Valley office to prevent infected gums and regular treatment of already infected gums are essential to your health!
