Causes of Periodontal Gum Disease

Periodontal gum disease is a serious condition that can cause tooth loss and other health problems. It is caused by bacteria that accumulate in the mouth and form plaque. Plaque is a sticky film that builds up on the teeth and gums, and if not removed, can cause inflammation and infection. The most common cause of periodontal gum disease is poor oral hygiene. If plaque is not removed regularly, it can harden and form tartar, which can cause the gums to become inflamed and infected.

Other factors that can contribute to periodontal gum disease include smoking, diabetes, genetics, and certain medications. Smoking can increase the risk of periodontal gum disease by reducing the amount of oxygen in the blood, which can make it harder for the body to fight off infection. Diabetes can also increase the risk of periodontal gum disease, as it can weaken the body’s ability to fight off infection. Genetics can also play a role in periodontal gum disease, as some people are more prone to developing it than others. Certain medications can also increase the risk of periodontal gum disease, as they can reduce the amount of saliva in the mouth, which can make it harder for the body to fight off infection.

Symptoms of Periodontal Gum Disease

At Dushane Dental Arts, we understand the importance of recognizing the symptoms of periodontal gum disease. This condition is caused by bacteria that accumulate in the mouth and can lead to inflammation, infection, and even tooth loss.

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to seek treatment from a qualified dental professional.

Right above the renowned LAVO ristorante, Dushane Dental on the 4th floor over looks part of Hollywood/Beverly Hills border. One of the greatest dentist teams in the world. Dushane Dental has a team of Rockstars. Shelly, Love, Joey, and Tiffany are all phenomenal in what they do. They do it with such grace and tenacity. No need to be afraid of going to the dentist with this group; your absolutely in great hands. I’ve only been in LA since winter 2018 and I’ve shopped a couple hand fulls of dentists, this is by far the best and teetering on world renowned with their exceptional attention to detail. Shelly loves doing her patients cleanings as much as I love getting a cleaning. Tiffany and Joey are both ever so meticulous with their due diligence. Greatness like this isn’t achieved over night. Cheers to this rockstar team. I’m literally looking forward to every visit. Please consider Dushane Dental whether in or out of network with your insurance. Update: I bought a teeth whitening package at Dushane dental and WOW it turned my teeth white! Check out the photos in my Review

As someone who finds going to the dentist a stressful experience I can’t recommend Dr. Dushane and her amazing team any higher! The whole team at Dushane is incredibly welcoming, accommodating, and kind. So happy I found them after moving to the area!

Incredibly helpful, clean and polite. Dr Dushane was so nice, as my hygienist Shila, office manager Joey, and Julian. Joey was super nice and as polite as could be, and showed me how safe and clean the office was upon entering. (You are supposed to call while you are outside the office and they let you in!) Shila was thorough, professional, and constantly checking if I was having any pain. (I wasn't) Julian was personable and friendly, and a pleasure to talk to. Dr. Was very through, and went over many issues other dentists dismissed. Very professional from the time I walked in to the time that I left. Answers all my questions. Highly recommend!

If you are looking for an amazing dentist, stop searching! Make an appointment with Dr. Dushane ASAP. Every single person on her team is amazing, and she's kind, gentle, and professional. I was nervous about switching dental providers (because my employer switched insurance), but after reading all the previous reviews I decided to give her a chance. Trust me, you won't regret the level of service, care, and kindness. Their prices are reasonable, the office is spotless and clean (very important), the equipment is modern, and she really sets the tone for a friendly and helpful environment. She, and her team, get 5 STARS! Thank you Dr. Dushane, for everything you do!

Best dentist I've ever had - amazing receptionist and hospitality, dental technician and Dr. Dushane is as lovely as she is knowledgeable. They recommended a periodontist to me as well and it was a wonderful recommendation. Can't speak highly enough of Dushane Dental Arts!

Highly recommend Dr. Dushane, she's knowledgable and direct. Switched to her office after my old dentist retired. I spent a lot of time searching for a trustworthy dentist who doesn't want to jump to drilling and filling. She's definitely the right balance between wait and see and take action. Love Sheila the hygienist and Joey at the front desk is really great too. And their office is super clean which is important for a dentist! 5 stars all around.

I have never been so excited to go to the dentist in my life. This place is a dream. Joey, who manages the front desk, is an expert in insurance and is extremely on top of everything. The whole office is extremely experienced, they have all the new tools to give you a phenomenal cleaning, and they are SUPER NICE to boot! Cannot recommend Dushane Dental enough.

An outstanding experience from initial examination through to completed treatment. Dr Dushane and her team are top notch - friendly, professional, efficient and skilled. I hadn't been to a dentist for a few years and my teeth required some serious 'fixing'. I left my first appointment after a deep cleaning, with a full understanding of what treatment was required and with detailed print-out of the cost and the contributions my insurance company would make. I would be travelling abroad for the Summer so Joey made sure to fit me in before my departure date. Although the follow-up appointment was lengthy due to the number of filings required, it was one of the smoothest procedures I've ever had. One thing I hadn't anticipated was the positive cosmetic effect resulting from replacing old metal fillings with white composite ones. In short, I can't recommend Dr Dushane highly enough. A brilliant dentist and practice.
