Periodontics in Bayside, NY 11364


Periodontal disease (commonly called gum disease) is an ongoing bacterial infection that thrives in the gums and bone around your teeth. Without treatment, this disease will not clear up on its own. In fact, you could end up with permanent tooth and gum damage unless you get it handled by a professional dentist. 


Dr. Velastegui at Radiant Dental Studio is experienced in treating gum disease. After a thorough examination, she will target the areas of bacterial growth and eliminate them to protect your gums and teeth from long-term damage. 


If you need periodontal treatment, call us at (718) 224-3001 to schedule your appointment!

Common Symptoms of Periodontal Disease


Millions of adults in America get gum disease every year and need treatment from a dentist. Some of the signs that you may have gum disease include:


  • Bleeding, sore, or itchy gums
  • Receding gums
  • Red or swollen gums
  • Persistent bad breath
  • Pain when chewing
  • Loss of teeth


If you are experiencing any of the above symptoms, call Radiant Dental Studio right away to schedule an appointment.

How to Treat Gum Disease


The standard way we treat gum disease is scaling and root planing, which involves getting under your gums to remove plaque buildup and apply a special antibiotic to clear up the disease. At your appointment, Dr. Velastegui can also advise you on any lifestyle changes you should make to reduce your risk of getting gum disease in the future.
