Periodontal Disease - Silent And Deadly
 

Periodontal disease can go on for years without pain and without detection unless specific examination procedures are performed. Visual oral examination by itself (even by a dentist) will not reliably detect periodontal disease until it has reached an advanced stage.

Early detection and adequate diagnosis require measurement of pockets (the crevice between tooth and gum) with a periodontal probe. Although the procedure is simple , painless and requires only a few minutes, millions of American adults have never had it done. Dr. Doray performs a complete periodontal examination as part of your initial comprehensive evaluation. Then Dr. Doray makes the appropriate periodontal diagnosis and prescribes the optimal treatment.

Early detection by Dr. Doray and appropriate treatment are critical to prevent tooth loss and disfigurement. We have a highly successful non-surgical periodontal treatment program available in our office, and Dr. Doray also works with a team of excellent periodontists if further treatment is needed.

Please feel free to call our office at 215 772-3100 to schedule a comprehensive evaluation if you have experienced any of the following signs of periodontal disease: bleeding ums, redness of gum tissue, swelling of gums around the teeth, breath odor, receding gums, or mobility of teeth.
