A BEAUTIFUL SMILE STARTS WITH PERIODONTAL MAINTENANCE…
Periodontal maintenance is a specialised ongoing dental care program designed to help patients with gum disease (periodontitis) maintain healthy gums and teeth for the long term. At Royal Oak Dental, our periodontal maintenance visits go beyond standard check-ups, involving thorough deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), removal of plaque and tartar from below the gum line, and careful monitoring of gum health to prevent disease progression and tooth loss.
Our experienced team creates personalised maintenance plans tailored to your individual needs, with regular appointments usually every 3–6 months depending on your condition. These visits help reduce inflammation, control infection, and support the stability of your gums and bone around your teeth. Good periodontal maintenance is one of the most effective ways to protect your smile and overall health, as untreated gum disease has been linked to broader health issues.
If you’ve been diagnosed with gum disease or notice signs like bleeding gums, bad breath, or receding gums, periodontal maintenance at Royal Oak Dental can make a real difference.
