Gum Disease / Periodontal Treatment in Tarzana

Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is one of the most common threats to long-term oral health. At Happy Tooth Dental, we provide modern, effective treatment for all stages of gum disease - from early gingivitis to advanced periodontitis - with a focus on prevention, early detection, and long-term maintenance.
Understanding Gum Disease
Gum disease begins with plaque, a sticky film of bacteria that builds up around the teeth and along the gumline. In its early stage, known as gingivitis, the gums may appear red, swollen, or bleed easily. If left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis - a more serious condition that can damage bone, loosen teeth, and eventually lead to tooth loss.
