Following your comprehensive gum exam, your dentist will explain to you the best treatment to manage your gums and also how to maintain their good health following treatment. Depending on the health of the gums or the severity of the gum disease, treatment options can vary.
Managing, controlling and preventing gum disease can be a continuous process. Routine dental check-ups and cleanings are essential to maintain healthy gums, especially if you have had gum disease in the past.
