Gum Disease (OraVital)

Gum Disease (gingivitis & periodontitis)

Gum disease is one of the most common oral health issues among adults and the elderly. It is a gum inflammation caused primarily by the buildup of dental plaque and tartar. Gum disease can damage the bone that holds teeth in place, eventually resulting in tooth loss. The two most common types of gum disease are gingivitis, which results in swollen and bleeding gums, and periodontal disease, which can appear in some people as a result of untreated gingivitis. The supporting structure of the teeth is harmed, which can result in pain, mobility, and eventually, tooth loss.

How to Treat and Prevent Gum Disease?

The best way to prevent periodontal disease is to maintain excellent oral hygiene habits every day, get regular dental checkups and cleanings. We also recommend using interdental brushes and flossing to thoroughly clean your teeth. Even with the most stringent at-home dental care regimen, you can develop periodontal disease.

Come Visit Gateway Dentistry & Our Dentist will provide you with a custom-made plan on how to enhance your dental hygiene practice at home, emphasizing the precise use of cleaning tools to meet your unique requirements. We frequently advise using specific mouthwashes and, on rare occasions, antibiotics to help control disease-causing germs.
Scaling and root planing are used to clean your teeth above and below the gum line. Our Dental hygienists work closely with our dental surgeons to provide clinical treatments for periodontal disease.

We offer OraVital & LANAP Protocol for treating periodontal disease at Gateway Dentistry.

After a nightmare experience with a pediatric dentist in Ottawa, I am so grateful to have found Dr. Saran and her wonderful team. I was told by her previous dentist that my 4 year old would need to go to Cheo and be put under to fill her 4 cavities. I’m so glad I sought out Dr. Saran for a second opinion. She filled 2 cavities in her office (without freezing) in under 10 minutes and the other 2 cavities have since hardened up after following Dr. Saran’s recommendations. My second daughter (now 3 years old) was born with missing enamel and has had numerous fillings with Dr. Saran, again without any freezing. My kids love going to the dentist! Dr. Saran is quick, extremely skilled, and trustworthy. I just can’t recommend her enough. The admin team, Rebecca and Kayla, are always so friendly and accommodating. They have squeezed me in a few times with very little notice for dental emergencies. The staff here truly cares! Although we are moving to Nova Scotia, we will continue to bring the kids back to see Dr. Saran. there is no other dentist I would trust more with my kids’ health. Thank you for everything!

Services at Gateway Dentistry are pleasant and professional – from ortho for my kids to general dental hygiene services, to fillings, they have always provided caring and thorough service. Dr. Saran has exceptional knowledge in her field and has a very practical and kind approach when communicating with patients. I am particularly impressed by the protocols implemented during COVID to ensure clean filtered air quality and sanitized equipment.

Great experience at Gateway Dentistry, the staff was very friendly and helpful. No wait time. Dr. Bezreh is a great and extremely professional doctor! Today the receptionist told me they had stopped direct billing to insurance companies for all patients, a little bit disappointed, but this does not change the overall experiences.
