From chips to gaps to discoloration, cosmetic dentistry may be just what you need to feel confident in your beam. Even so, if you currently have gum disease, it&#8217;s important to have it treated before you move forward with cosmetic dentistry. Keep reading to learn about why you need <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosemeadedental.com\/gum-disease-treatment.html\">gum disease<\/a> therapy before undergoing a cosmetic dental procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Gum Disease?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gum disease, which is also called periodontal disease, is a gum infection that usually occurs as a result of poor oral hygiene. Other potential risk factors for gum disease include certain medications, genetics, hormonal changes, and smoking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If it is caught early on, gum disease is fairly easy to both treat and reverse. But, if it progresses and becomes a more serious infection called periodontitis, this may lead to loose teeth, tooth loss, and receding gums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Gum Disease Needs to Be Treated Before Cosmetic Dental Work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are thinking about undergoing cosmetic dentistry, existing oral health issues will need to be treated before you proceed. This includes gum disease. If you move forward with your chosen cosmetic treatments without getting gum disease therapy period this will likely lead to complications and may cause tooth loss or lead to treatments like dental implants failing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your dentist will work with you to come up with a treatment plan for periodontal disease. Once your smile is in good condition, they will develop a new treatment plan to give you the smile of your dreams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Is Gum Disease Treated?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Scaling and root planing are a common way of treating gum disease. Your dental health professional will perform a deep clean of your teeth and gums, focusing on the removal of harmful bacteria and plaque under the gum line. They will then use root planing to smooth out the tooth roots. This will help keep bacteria from attaching to them as easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chao Pinhole Technique is another treatment used to get rid of gum disease. A small hole will be made in the gum tissue with a needle. Then, a special instrument will be used to loosen the tissue. This allows it to be easily moved so that it fully covers the exposed tooth roots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Team includes compassionate, accommodating, and talented Carrollton-based dental health professionals.
