Gum Recession Treatment

For many patients, receding gums are just a symptom of a bigger, underlying oral health issue. There are several reasons why you need to seek treatment for receding gums as soon as you detect a problem, including:

• Reduce your risk of losing teeth
• Reduce pain and discomfort from inflamed gums
• Reduce tooth sensitivity
• Maintain a healthy smile
• Stop the progression of gum disease

Treatment Options

You may need professional treatment with Dr. Keith Chertok in Berkeley, CA to restore your oral health after receding gums. Gum recession prevention and treatment options include:

• Gum grafting procedures
• Periodontal therapy
• Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST™)
• Using an electric or soft-bristled toothbrush
• Correct misaligned or malpositioned teeth

Importance of Seeing Your Periodontist

If you have loose teeth or receding gums, you must contact Dr. Chertok for an appointment as soon as possible. These are both symptoms of gum disease and should be treated as soon as possible. Progressing gum disease can cause a number of oral health problems, including shifting teeth, bleeding gums, gum recession, and inflammation of the gum tissue.

Importance of Treatment

If you notice your teeth have become very sensitive or are starting to pull away from the tooth structure, you need to seek treatment for these symptoms as soon as you can. Dr. Chertok may recommend periodontal therapy, if gum disease has caused your recession, and a gum graft or PST™ to restore your oral health. He will determine whether you are a good candidate for these treatments during your consultation. His goal is to ensure that you are not causing any unnecessary damage to the gums.

Gum disease is the leading cause of gum recession and can render significant damage to the supportive structures of the teeth. For your periodontal screening and gum recession evaluation in Berkeley, CA, schedule your appointment with Dr. Chertok today!
