What Is Gum Disease?

Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is an infection of the gums caused by bacteria that build up around your teeth. It usually starts as gingivitis, which makes gums red and swollen, and can progress to periodontitis if left untreated.
When bacteria damage the tissues and bone that support your teeth, it can lead to tooth mobility or even tooth loss. The good news? Early treatment can completely stop and even reverse the damage.

Cost & Insurance Coverage

The cost of gum disease treatment at Park Dental Centre depends on several factors, including the stage of the disease, the type of treatment required, and the number of affected teeth or areas. Early cases of gingivitis may only need a simple cleaning, while advanced periodontitis can require deep cleaning, laser therapy, or surgery, which increases the cost.

Worried about cost? We believe everyone deserves a healthy smile. That’s why we offer direct billing for your convenience, as most dental insurance plans cover gum disease treatment. Moreover, flexible payment plans are available for uninsured patients.

Once your gums are treated, maintaining their health is key. Our team will guide you through:

Proper brushing and flossing techniques

Regular dental cleanings every 3 to 6 months

Healthy eating habits

Quitting smoking if applicable

A few simple changes can help you enjoy a lifetime of healthy gums.

FAQ About Gum Disease Treatment

Can gum disease be cured permanently?

Early stages like gingivitis can be reversed with proper care and cleaning. Advanced gum disease (periodontitis) can be controlled but requires ongoing maintenance to prevent relapse.

Is gum disease treatment painful?

With modern anesthesia and laser dentistry, most procedures are virtually pain-free. Patients often feel only mild pressure or sensitivity.

Can gum disease cause tooth loss?

Yes. Untreated gum disease damages the bone supporting your teeth, leading to mobility or tooth loss. Early treatment can prevent this completely.

How long does gum disease treatment take?

It depends on the severity: mild cases may require one or two sessions, while advanced stages may need multiple visits for deep cleaning and follow-ups.

What happens if I ignore bleeding gums?

Bleeding is the earliest warning sign. Ignoring it allows bacteria to spread deeper, leading to bone loss, receding gums, and chronic infection.
