What is periodontal disease? Periodontal disease happens when chronic bacteria infect the gums and bones that support the teeth. The word periodontal literally means "around the tooth." Because bone is the primary structure around our teeth, periodontal disease is actually a bone disease although sometimes it is referred to as gum disease.
Treating periodontal disease (gum disease) can significantly reduce the risks for heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, arthritis, cancer and diabetes. Periodontal disease is an inflammation of the gums (swollen gums) and bone that surround your teeth. The American Academy of Periodontology (AAP) estimates that 3 out of 4 Americans are affected by gum disease, ranging from mild gingivitis to more severe periodontitis.
Gum recession is the loss of protective gum tissue surrounding the teeth. It can affect the tissue around a single tooth or around many teeth. Unlike periodontal disease (gum disease), patients can typically identify when they have receding gums, such as when teeth appear longer or have changed color due to exposed roots.
What are dental implants? Dental implants are a safer, faster, more accurate way to replace missing teeth than conventional dental bridges. When a dental bridge is implemented, it requires healthy, adjacent teeth to be ground down. This puts more teeth at risk to develop tooth decay, especially because it is impossible to floss between the teeth.
Temporary Anchor Device (TAD) What is a temporary anchor device? A temporary anchor device is a titanium bone anchor that is placed in the mouth to help the orthodontic movement of teeth. They are about the length of a thumbnail and no wider than the head of a pin.
