Periodontics At Slievemore Dental

Oral health involves the care of teeth and the structures surrounding and supporting these teeth (gums and jawbones). Evidence reports that almost 50% of the population suffers with some form of gum disease highlighting the need for education and prevention.

Periodontics is a branch of dentistry that deals with diseases affecting the supporting tissues of teeth. This may involve gum disease, gum recession, gum overgrowth, jawbone defects and loose teeth. If left untreated, diseases affecting these tissues may lead to a loss of teeth or jawbone making repair and replacement more difficult and unaesthetic.

At Slievemore Dental we prioritise our assessment visits so we can effectively diagnose and manage diseases relating to these tissues. Our dentists are well positioned to inform patients and subsequently treat these conditions
