Periodontal

Periodontitis and other gum diseases can be prevented through proper oral hygiene. And if you’ve recently received treatment for the problem, effective lifestyle measures can prevent the problem from recurring.

Common maintenance procedures include scaling and root planting, removing plaque and tartar, tooth polishing, etc. Ideally, periodontal care visits are scheduled once every six months, although, it is up to the dentist to determine the frequency of your visits.
