Understanding Periodontics

Periodontics is a branch of dentistry focused on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases affecting the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. Healthy gums are critical for maintaining overall oral health, as they provide essential support and protection for your teeth. Neglecting gum health can lead to periodontal diseases, which, if left untreated, may result in tooth loss, bone damage, and other serious health complications.
