The Perio Program includes:

At Encinitas Dental Art, we emphasize the importance of comprehensive oral care, recognizing the strong link between periodontal health and overall well-being. Our periodontal maintenance program is designed to prevent the progression of gum disease, a condition that can significantly impact not just your oral health but your general health too.
Understanding Gum Disease
Periodontal disease, affecting a vast number of adults, is primarily caused by the accumulation of bacterial plaque. This condition can range from mild gum inflammation, known as gingivitis, to more severe forms, such as periodontitis, which can lead to tooth loss if untreated. The foundation of preventing and managing gum disease lies in effective daily oral hygiene practices and professional dental care.
