Gum disease treatment
Did you know almost 50% of all U.S. adults have some degree of gum disease? If caught early, gum disease can be reversed. And, this disease is 100% preventable. If not caught on time, gum disease can lead to tooth loss and bad breath.
Treatments include scaling and root planing, irritation, and arrestin.
Scaling and root planning is a procedure physically remove bacteria, plaque, and calculus with specialized tools.
Irrigation helps to deliver an antibacterial solution to a deep diseased area inside the gum.
Arrestin (minocycline hydrochloride) is an antibiotic delivered locally to infected gum to control the progression of gum disease.
Sealants
Dental sealants are a simple and effective way to protect your teeth from decay. They are thin coatings that are painted onto the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars) to prevent cavities for many years. Accroding to CDC, dental sealants can prevent up to 80% of cavities over 2 years in the back teeth, where 9 in 10 cavities occur.
Sealants are most often applied to children and teens when their adult teeth first erupt, but adults can also benefit from having their teeth sealed. The procedure is completely pain-free and is a cost-effective way to prevent tooth decay. Additionally, sealants for kids are free on Medicaid or CHIP.
At our dental clinic, we highly recommend dental sealants as a preventative measure for both children and adults. Contact us today to schedule an appointment and protect your teeth from decay.
