Periodontics & Dental Implant
A periodontist focuses on both the placement of dental implants and the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal disease, a chronic inflammatory condition that affects the gums and bone that support the teeth & implants. Other periodontics procedures include gum graft, bone graft, guided tissue regeneration, melanin pigmentation, Gummy smile cases & crown lengthening surgeries. Excessive gum tissue, receding gums, and missing teeth are just a few of the conditions that periodontal plastic surgery can address.
Dental Implant
A dental implant is, technically speaking, an artificial tooth root that is implanted into your jaw to support a bridge or prosthetic tooth. The majority of the time, however, when someone uses the term "dental implants," they are referring to the fusion of the implant (the false tooth root) and the prosthetic tooth. If you would prefer not to wear dentures and have lost one or more teeth due to periodontal disease, an accident, or another reason, dental implants may be a possibility for you.

What Alternatives to Surgery Do I Have?
Scaling and root planing are procedures we frequently advise at our office. In comparison to a routine dental cleaning, this process thoroughly cleans the surfaces of the teeth. Plaque and calculus buildup in the periodontal pockets will be eliminated by our periodontists. During the process, we will clean, smooth the tooth roots, and apply antibiotics. Following scaling and root planing, you'll probably need to maintain a particular oral hygiene routine. Our staff will make sure you have all the knowledge necessary to effectively take care of your teeth at home. -
Are Periodontal Exams Painful?
You're not the only person who fears going to the dentist. Before sitting in the dentist's chair, a lot of people experience intense anxiety because they fear the procedure will be painful. The staff at Lounge Dental Clinic wants you to feel as comfortable as possible. The majority of patients experience little to no discomfort. -
Are Periodontal Disease's Symptoms Visible?
Keep an eye out for a number of symptoms if you believe you may be developing periodontal disease. Some of these will be easy to spot, including receding gums and pus between the gums and teeth. Other symptoms, though, could be simple to dismiss at first. We advise you to arrange a periodontal examination at Lounge Dental Clinic if you experience any of these signs: oral irritation, gums with red or swelling, excessive bleeding when using a toothbrush or floss, missing teeth, poor breath, developing mouth sores, alterations to your bite or the fit of your dentures.
