What Is Periodontics?

Periodontics focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease. Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. At Walkerville Dental, we assess your gum health during every visit and provide personalized periodontal care when needed. Gum disease can progress silently, so early detection is key. Learn more about periodontal health on the Canadian Dental Association website.

Signs You May Need Periodontal Treatment

Bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, and gum recession are warning signs of gum disease. If you notice any of these, our dental team can help. We offer scaling and root planing, along with ongoing maintenance care. Left untreated, gum disease can lead to tooth loss and affect your overall health.
