What Is Dental Hygiene and Periodontal Care?

What Is Dental Hygiene and Periodontal Care?

Dental hygiene and periodontal care focus on preventing, diagnosing, and managing gum disease while maintaining the health of teeth and supporting structures. Routine cleanings, comprehensive exams, and periodontal maintenance appointments play a critical role in protecting against tooth decay, gum inflammation, and bone loss.

At Scottsdale Elite Dentistry, preventive care is proactive and personalized, designed to support long-term oral stability rather than reactive treatment.

The Importance of Healthy Gums

The Importance of Healthy Gums

Gum health is closely connected to overall oral health. When plaque and bacteria accumulate along the gumline, they can cause inflammation, bleeding, and infection. Left untreated, gum disease can progress and lead to bone loss, tooth mobility, and tooth loss.

Maintaining healthy gums helps:

  • Prevent gum disease and infection
  • Protect jawbone and tooth stability
  • Reduce inflammation and bleeding
  • Support overall oral health
  • Enhance the longevity of dental restorations

Healthy gums provide the foundation for a strong, confident smile.

Dental Hygiene Services We Offer

Our dental hygiene services are designed to keep your teeth and gums healthy while addressing individual risk factors.

Periodontal Maintenance

Periodontal Maintenance

For patients with a history of gum disease, periodontal maintenance appointments are customized to manage bacteria, reduce inflammation, and prevent disease progression.

Comprehensive Exams and Monitoring

Comprehensive Exams and Monitoring

Each hygiene visit includes a thorough evaluation of gum health, tooth condition, and bite alignment. Early detection allows for conservative treatment and better long-term outcomes.

Understanding Periodontal Disease

Understanding Periodontal Disease

Periodontal disease is a chronic condition caused by bacterial infection of the gums. Early-stage gingivitis may present as redness, swelling, or bleeding, while advanced periodontal disease can lead to bone loss and tooth loss.

Common signs of periodontal disease include:

Early diagnosis and ongoing care are key to managing this condition effectively.

  • Bleeding gums
  • Persistent bad breath
