At Valley Dental, we prioritize your oral health and overall wellbeing. Periodontal care is a crucial aspect of maintaining a healthy smile, and our team is committed to providing you with the best care possible.
Periodontal care becomes essential when you experience signs of gum disease, such as bleeding, redness, swelling or tenderness of the gums. Other indications include persistent bad breath, loose teeth, receding gums and the formation of pockets between your teeth and gums. If you have been neglecting regular dental checkups and cleanings, or if you have a family history of gum disease, you may be at a higher risk and should consider periodontal care in City of Industry, California. Early intervention is key to preventing the progression of gum disease and its potential impact on your overall health.
When you visit our dentist for periodontal care, Dr. Ana Cariaga will conduct a comprehensive examination, which may include X-rays to assess the extent of the disease. Based on our findings, we will recommend a tailored treatment plan, which may include deep cleaning, scaling and root planing and, in more severe cases, surgical methods with Dr. Ian Woo. We will also provide guidance on at-home oral care to support your recovery and long-term oral health.
Periodontal care helps to halt the progression of gum disease, preventing further damage and tooth loss. Additionally, treating it can improve your overall health, as there is a known link between gum disease and systemic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes and respiratory issues. With proper periodontal care, you can enjoy a healthier, more confident smile, improved breath and long-lasting oral health. Do not hesitate to reach out to us at 626-965-7445 if you suspect you may need periodontal care.
