Periodontics is a dental speciality that deals with gums and their surrounding structures. Periodontal disease is one of the significant reasons for tooth loss worldwide. It mainly occurs due to either lack of patient awareness as it occurs without any symptoms or due to an untimely diagnosis. Early diagnosis and timely management help prevent the disease progression to its later stages. Regular check-ups with a Periodontist and professional cleaning would reduce the occurrence of various gum diseases, thereby providing room for healthy teeth.
