What is Periodontics?<\/h2>\n

Periodontics is the dental speciality that deals with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases that affect the tissues that support the teeth, i.e. the gums, bone and periodontal ligament.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Although these structures generally do not produce painful symptoms, gum disease can cause extensive damage such as bone loss and even tooth loss.<\/p>\n

It is essential to maintain healthy gums with the help of professional periodontal treatments and home care such as good brushing technique and daily flossing.<\/p>\n
