FAQ Section
Is scaling and root planing painful?
Scaling and root planing is typically performed with local anesthesia when needed to
keep the treatment comfortable. Some temporary gum tenderness or tooth sensitivity
may occur afterward as the tissues heal.
Can gum disease be reversed?
Early-stage gum inflammation, known as gingivitis, can often improve with professional
care and consistent oral hygiene. Periodontitis involves deeper damage to the
supporting structures around the teeth and generally requires ongoing treatment and
maintenance to control the disease.
What are the signs that I may have gum disease?
Common warning signs include gums that bleed when brushing or flossing, redness or
swelling, persistent bad breath, gum recession, sensitivity, changes in your bite, or loose
teeth. Gum disease can also progress with few noticeable symptoms, making regular
periodontal evaluations important.
How often will I need periodontal maintenance after treatment?
The frequency depends on the severity of your periodontal disease and your response
to treatment. Patients with a history of periodontitis often require more frequent
professional maintenance visits (such as every 3 to 4 months) than patients receiving
routine preventive cleanings.
