Gum Disease: Prevention and Treatment at Camille Adli, DDS in Long Beach, California
Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a common dental issue that affects millions of people worldwide. It occurs when the tissues that surround and support the teeth become infected and inflamed, leading to gum recession, tooth loss, and other serious dental problems. At Camille Adli, DDS in Long Beach, California, our team of experienced dentists and hygienists is dedicated to preventing and treating gum disease to help our patients maintain healthy, beautiful smiles.
The early stage of gum disease, known as gingivitis, is often characterized by red, swollen, and bleeding gums. If left untreated, gingivitis can progress to periodontitis, which can cause significant damage to the teeth and gums. Symptoms of periodontitis include receding gums, tooth sensitivity, loose teeth, and even tooth loss.
Preventing gum disease starts with good oral hygiene. Brushing and flossing every day is essential for removing plaque and bacteria from the teeth and gums. Eating a healthy diet that is rich in vitamins and minerals can also help keep the gums healthy. Additionally, avoiding smoking and tobacco use can significantly reduce the risk of developing gum disease.
At Camille Adli, DDS, we recommend that our patients schedule regular dental check-ups every six months to ensure that their teeth and gums are in good condition. During a check-up, our team will examine the teeth and gums for any signs of gum disease or other dental issues. We will also provide a thorough dental cleaning to remove any plaque or tartar buildup that can contribute to gum disease.
If we detect gum disease during a check-up, we will work with our patients to create a personalized treatment plan to address their needs. Treatment for gum disease typically involves a deep cleaning procedure called scaling and root planing, which removes plaque and tartar from below the gum line. In more advanced cases of gum disease, surgery may be necessary to repair damaged tissues and restore oral health.
At Camille Adli, DDS, we understand that gum disease can be a serious dental issue that requires prompt and effective treatment. Our team is dedicated to providing gentle and compassionate care to our patients, and we use the latest dental technologies and techniques to ensure that treatment is as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
If you’re concerned about gum disease or are experiencing symptoms such as bleeding or swollen gums, contact Camille Adli, DDS today. Our team is committed to helping our patients maintain healthy, beautiful smiles, and we look forward to working with you to achieve optimal oral health.

She takes excellent care of our teeth and her staff are very y nice and professional.Jessica C.2023-01-03Dr. Aldi's office is the 5th dental office I've gone too in my life(where I've had some sort of dental work done). The one I had prior was rough and it's the one i use to afford when I was going through the motions of jobs. With my current insurance, I'm so happy i found this place. They are so diligent and pay attention to detail. In the past, I've hardly had to pay co pays and what not and the dental work was basic or sub Par. Here, i know what I'm paying for when I do need serious work done. I've been coming here for 2 years and have been so happy and less anxious when I come to the dentist. Thank you Dr. Adli, connie, brenda and Sarah. Y'all have really helped me understand my dental care plans.Jennifer M.2022-11-21This is the best dentist office in SoCal.
