When should you see a periodontics?

See a periodontist if your gums bleed regularly, look red or swollen, or are receding. Also see one if you have persistent bad breath, loose teeth, or are considering dental implants. If you have diabetes, heart disease, or are pregnant, your general dentist may recommend a periodontal evaluation even without obvious symptoms.

Charlotte, NC has 20 NPI-verified periodontics practices. The one with a Google rating averages 4.2 stars. You can compare them on this page or match with one through Dee, our AI matching engine.

What are the warning signs of gum disease?
Early signs include: gums that bleed when brushing or flossing, persistent bad breath, red or swollen gums, and gum tenderness. Advanced signs include: receding gums (teeth look longer), loose teeth, changes in how your teeth fit together when biting, and pus between teeth and gums. If caught early (gingivitis), gum disease is reversible. Once it progresses to periodontitis, professional treatment is needed.
How much do dental implants cost?
A single dental implant typically costs $3,000–$6,000 total — including the implant post ($1,500–$3,000), abutment ($500–$1,000), and crown ($1,000–$2,500). Full-mouth implant solutions range from $15,000–$60,000 or more. Most dental insurance plans provide limited implant coverage, if any. Many periodontists offer financing plans.
Is gum disease treatment painful?
Modern periodontal treatment is performed under local anesthesia, so you shouldn't feel pain during the procedure. Deep cleanings (scaling and root planing) may cause some gum tenderness for a few days afterward. Surgical procedures have a longer recovery but are managed with prescribed pain relievers. Your periodontist will discuss pain management and aftercare in detail.
Can gum disease affect my overall health?
Yes. Research has linked periodontitis to several systemic conditions: heart disease (bacteria from infected gums can enter the bloodstream), diabetes (gum disease makes blood sugar harder to control, and diabetes worsens gum disease), pregnancy complications (preterm birth, low birth weight), and respiratory disease. Treating gum disease isn't just about saving teeth — it's about protecting your overall health.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care — brushing, flossing, and regular dental checkups — dental implants can last 25 years to a lifetime. The crown portion may need replacement after 15–20 years due to normal wear. Success rates are 95–98% for implants placed by specialists. Key factors affecting longevity: good oral hygiene, not smoking, and managing conditions like diabetes.
