Let us help you restore and maintain your gum health for a confident, radiant smile.

What is Gum Disease?

Gum disease, also called periodontal disease, is a bacterial infection of the gums and surrounding tissues that support your teeth. It starts with gingivitis, a mild form of gum inflammation, and can progress to periodontitis, where the infection affects the underlying bone and connective tissues.
At Clove Dental in Ventura, we offer comprehensive periodontal services to address all stages of gum disease. From non-invasive treatments like deep cleaning to advanced procedures, we provide solutions designed to preserve your smile and oral health.

Benefits of Treating Gum Disease

Gum disease is a leading cause of tooth loss, but timely treatment can save your teeth.

Managing gum disease reduces the risk of systemic issues like heart disease and diabetes.

Treatment alleviates inflammation, tenderness, and swelling.

Healthy gums create a beautiful frame for your teeth.

Signs You Might Need Gum Disease Treatment

Gum disease often develops gradually, so it’s important to recognize the warning signs early. Look for these symptoms:

Swollen or Red Gums: Inflammation is an early indicator of gum disease.
Bleeding Gums: Especially during brushing or flossing.
Receding Gums: Gums pulling back from the teeth can expose sensitive roots.
Chronic Bad Breath: Persistent bad breath caused by bacterial infection.
Loose or Shifting Teeth: A sign of weakened support structures in advanced stages.
Sensitivity or Pain: Tenderness or discomfort in your gums.

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, contact our Ventura office for a consultation.
