What the word means
Periodontics looks after what holds your teeth up.
Teeth do not stand on their own. Gum tissue, bone and the attachment between them keep each tooth in position, and periodontics is the branch of dental care devoted to those structures. Trouble there can include inflammation, receding gums and loss of support.
Plenty of people first hear the term after a routine visit, when someone mentions bleeding or pocket measurements. From anywhere in Winnipeg, you can request an assessment at our McPhillips Street clinic and have those findings explained in ordinary language.

Three stages to tell apart
Healthy tissue, gingivitis and periodontitis call for different responses, so naming the stage comes first.
Measured, not guessed
Gentle readings around each tooth add detail that looking alone cannot supply.
A foundation for later work
Steadier gums can prepare the way for restorative or implant care when those are part of your plans.

How an assessment unfolds
From first concern to clear findings.
A first periodontal appointment is mostly about gathering information. Here is roughly what that involves.
Request your visit- 01
Describe what you have noticed
Mention bleeding, tenderness, a bad taste or anything else that has changed, along with your health conditions, medications and any tobacco use.
- 02
Let the tissues be charted
Pocket depth, recession and bleeding are recorded tooth by tooth, while mobility, your bite and suitable dental images help show how much support remains.
- 03
Hear what the pattern means
The active areas are pointed out, and treatment and maintenance options are laid out so you can ask about anything that remains unclear.

Helpful details about periodontics in Winnipeg.
Ask our teamIs a periodontal problem the same thing as gum disease?
Gum disease is a large part of periodontal care, but the field also covers recession and the bone and tissue around teeth, including preparing those areas for implant care.
What separates gingivitis from periodontitis?
Gingivitis means inflamed, bleeding gums with the attachment still intact. Periodontitis adds loss of attachment, bone or both, which is why the two are managed differently.
Can I ask about my gums if nothing hurts?
Absolutely. Periodontitis can advance with little discomfort, so an absence of pain says little about what measurements might show.
Can gum disease be cured?
Gingivitis often improves with professional care and steady plaque control. Periodontitis is generally managed over time, with maintenance visits tailored to how stable your gums remain.
Does every patient end up with surgery?
No. A plan can begin with home-care coaching, professional cleaning or treatment below the gumline. Surgery is considered only for selected sites after reassessment.
How do I request a visit from elsewhere in the city?
