Why would I see a periodontist?

Periodontists are dentists who specialize in the diagnosis & treatment of gum (periodontal) disease and dental implants. They are also known as gum specialists.


Could I have gum disease?

The signs of gum disease are bleeding, swollen gums, bad breath, gum recession, loose teeth, gaps appearing between teeth, pus and eventual tooth loss.

Gum disease is not painful and therefore often goes unnoticed and undiagnosed. It may only become evident at an advanced stage, after loss of bone and gum.
