Partner with dentist: I am assuming your dentist or hygienist told you that you have periodontal disease. The treatment varies with the severity and progression of gum disease. Mild periodontal disease can be simply managed by your dentist and hygienist, however, advancing gum disease will require the intervention of a periodontist. Most importantly...Do not ignor this problem, it will not go away on its own. Best!
