Periodontal Disease Treatment

If left untreated, periodontal (gum) disease can have a devastating impact on your oral and overall health…

In fact, gum disease is the number one cause of tooth loss amongst adults! The signs and symptoms of periodontal disease include:

• Chronic bad breath
• Red, sore or swollen gums
• Receding gums
• Pain when chewing
• Teeth that feel loose

If you suffer from any of these symptoms it is important to book an oral health check-up at our Northern Melbourne dental practice as soon as possible.
