What is a PerioSmile?
A PerioSmile is a healthy, vibrant, and beautiful smile where the teeth are fully visible and gums are healthy and free of nflammation. This provides optimal support for your teeth.
When gums cover a significant portion of the teeth it can reduce the beauty of your smile.
When is the right time to get a PerioSmile?
PerioSmile may be recommended when gum disease has progressed beyond what routine cleanings alone can manage. Early intervention is key to preventing further damage to the gums and supporting bone.
You may be a good candidate for PerioSmile® if you experience:
-
Bleeding gums when brushing or flossing
-
Swollen, tender, or inflamed gums
-
Persistent bad breath or a bad taste in the mouth
-
Gum recession or teeth that appear longer
-
Deep periodontal pockets
-
A previous diagnosis of moderate to advanced periodontal disease
PerioSmile is often ideal for patients seeking a less invasive alternative to traditional gum surgery. A comprehensive periodontal evaluation will determine the right timing and whether this treatment is appropriate for your specific condition.
