Periodontics is a field of dentistry that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal diseases, which affect the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. This branch of dentistry also encompasses the placement and maintenance of dental implants, managing tissue surrounding teeth, and promoting overall oral health.
Recognizing the vital link between periodontal health and general well-being, Dr. Afzal employs a compassionate and knowledgeable approach, addressing not only the specific oral concerns of patients but also encouraging practices that foster long-term health and wellness. By prioritizing preventive care and education, The Dental Retreat aims to support individuals in achieving optimal oral and systemic health.
Gum decontamination is a therapeutic procedure aimed at removing harmful bacteria and biofilm from the surfaces of the gums and teeth, particularly in patients suffering from periodontal disease. By eliminating harmful bacteria, gum decontamination helps reduce inflammation and promotes the healing of gum tissues.
Moreover, gum decontamination encourages an environment where healing can take place, and further disease progression can be prevented. Regular gum decontamination, along with proper home care practices, fosters healthier gums, leading to a brighter, healthier smile.
While regular check-ups are essential for fostering long-term gum health, it’s important to understand the signs of gum disease so that you know when to seek immediate treatment. By recognizing the signs of each stage of gum disease and seeking timely intervention, Dr. Afazal can effectively manage symptoms and get you on a path to better health.
