Solve The Root Of The Problem
Swollen or bleeding gums, bite changes, and loose teeth can all be annoying. They are also often signs of periodontal disease, which, left untreated, can cause serious problems not just in the mouth but throughout the body. At Lucie Dental, Periodontics in Port St. Lucie, FL is part of our lineup of treatments that we use to help our patients get back to oral health. Led by dentist Dr. Scott Azari and periodontist Dr. Jason Hersh, we treat patients with tailored care and five-star results.
Heal And Restore
Periodontics focuses on preventing and diagnosing gum disease and placing and maintaining dental implants. By addressing issues with the teeth' supporting structures, including the gums, bone, and connective tissues, periodontal treatment improves oral health and maintains the dental foundation.
Dental Harmony
Periodontics offers significant improvements in oral health and overall well-being by addressing gum disease and other periodontal issues. Patients can experience benefits that include:
Start Your Journey To Oral Health
Ideal candidates for periodontics are those dealing with symptoms of gum disease, which might include swelling, bleeding, or gum recession, or those who are in need of dental implants. Patients with loose teeth, persistent bad breath, or a family history of periodontal issues will likely also benefit from treatment.
Specialized Care
At our practice in Port St. Lucie Periodontics addresses a variety of dental and oral health concerns:
Correct And Improve
Following periodontal treatment, patients can expect noticeable improvements in their gum health and overall oral stability. Gum inflammation and bleeding typically subside within days to weeks, while more complex procedures like bone grafting may require a few months for full results. Successful healing and commitment to the process will result in long-lasting outcomes for dental implant preparation.
Get Back To Life
Most periodontal treatments do not require downtime, and patients can return to work or daily activities immediately. If surgical intervention is needed, there may be a few days needed for recovery. Patients may experience some tenderness or swelling in the gums after certain treatments.
Let Our Team Be Your Guide
Since there may be some sensitivity, patients may need to eat soft foods that are not too sweet and are not at extreme temperatures, either hot or cold. Patients should also follow regular oral hygiene, including brushing twice a day and possibly using dentist-recommended mouthwash to prevent infection.
