Nine out of ten people will one day be affected by periodontal disease. Gum disease is the most widespread problem in adults, but adolescents and children can also be affected. One form of gum disease is periodontitis, which is caused by the accumulation of micro-organisms under the gums and is characterized mainly by the destruction of the support around one or several teeth.
Since the symptoms of these diseases are often barely perceptible, at the Boutin, Langlois Dental Clinic, we systematically check the health of your gums during every examination.
As soon as we detect any sign of gum disease, we immediately suggest various preventive or corrective measures.
