Gum Disease Treatment in Juno Beach, FL

Gum disease starts as gingivitis, which is reversible, and progresses into periodontitis, which is not. The difference is bone. Once the bone anchoring your teeth begins to recede it does not grow back on its own, and the teeth it was holding eventually loosen.

At Bluewater Dental, our Juno Beach team stages treatment to how far the disease has actually gone rather than applying the same protocol to everyone. Early cases respond to scaling and root planing, advanced cases need surgical care, and everyone who has had it needs ongoing maintenance to keep it from returning.
