At Town East Dental Group, we emphasize prevention to lower our patients’ risks for periodontal disease in Mesquite, TX, and other oral health issues. However, we understand that it can be scary if you’re diagnosed with the condition.

Rest assured, we have experience treating this condition and provide a gentle and efficient plan to help prevent associated complications, including:

  • Heart health issues
  • Lung health issues
  • Dementia
  • And more

Let’s explore the cost of periodontal cleaning and why it’s crucial to your wellness and well-being!

Signs of Periodontal Disease

You may not notice all the symptoms immediately, which is why regular dental care is crucial. Your dentist can diagnose the condition in the early stages (gingivitis) when it is reversible. When it advances to periodontitis, it is merely treatable, but treatment is crucial.

Signs you may notice include:

  • Red and irritated gums
  • Loose or mobile teeth
  • Recurring bad breath
  • Periodic tooth pain
  • Gum pocketing
  • Gum recession

Treatment and periodontal treatment costs will vary based on your level of disease and insurance coverage. However, we accept CareCredit financing and offer an exclusive dental discount plan. Ask a team member about your limits, exclusions, and savings through this plan.

To understand the investment and why periodontal cleanings and treatment are crucial to your health and wellness, you should first understand the associated risks when left untreated.

Studies have linked the condition to everything from Alzheimer’s disease to rheumatoid arthritis and heart disease. It has also been associated with preterm labor and low birth weight.

We aim to significantly lower your risks for these complications and restore you to better dental health.
