Have Advanced Gum Disease?
A Healthy Smile Needs Healthy Gums
Gum recession is a condition in which the ridge of your gum tissue begins to pull back toward the tooth roots. This has many negative potential consequences, from the functional to the esthetic. Gum recession can leave a large portion of your tooth roots exposed, causing you to experience temperature sensitivity when eating and drinking. It can make your gumline appear lopsided, transforming what may otherwise be a healthy smile into one that makes you feel self-conscious. Worse yet, if you leave the condition untreated, it can lead to gum disease, tooth loss, and jawbone loss. We’re here to help you avoid the risks of gum recession in Miami, FL!
How Osseous Surgery Improves Health
Advanced stages of gum disease not only damage your oral structures but increase your risk for systemic health complications, as well. Research has shown a link between advanced periodontal disease and health conditions like diabetes, respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, and stroke. Treating gum disease with osseous surgery in Miami, FL, can effectively restore health to your smile … and improve your physical health, as well!
During osseous surgery, we clear the calculus and bacteria that are causing inflammation and infection. Next, we trim away the diseased gum tissues and reshape the damaged bone. By restoring health to these structures, we create a better oral environment that helps preserve teeth, bone, and gums in the future while restoring proper function and smile esthetics. Without chronic inflammation affecting your systemic health, you will experience better overall health and the ability to eat, talk, and laugh comfortably and confidently.
