Periodontics

Periodontal treatment at Brimington Dental Practice covers both the prevention and treatment of gum disease.

Periodontics is the field of dentistry concerning the gums and other structures of support for the teeth. One of the most important aspects of periodontal treatment is gum disease prevention which is carried out by the dentist, patient, and dental hygienist. Gum disease is one of the most common diseases in Europe, despite being easily preventable with proper oral hygiene and good oral healthcare.

Brimington Dental Practice promotes preventive dentistry wherever possible, but with our highly skilled and trained team, we’re also able to treat gum disease and other gum issues when they arise. We can treat bleeding and inflamed gums, as well as infected gums, and can even provide advanced periodontal therapy. This includes treatments such as scale and root planing, gum grafts, pocket reduction, and bone grafts.
