Gum disease is one of the leading causes of tooth loss—and it often develops silently. At PAR Dental, we specialize in diagnosing and treating periodontal disease early to protect your smile and overall health.
Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, is a chronic infection of the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. It begins as gingivitis (red, swollen gums) and can progress to periodontitis, where the gums pull away and bone loss occurs.
Dr. Par and our team provide gentle, effective periodontal care using advanced techniques and personalized treatment plans. We’re proud to serve Springboro families with preventive and restorative gum health solutions.
Gum disease is primarily caused by plaque buildup due to poor oral hygiene. Other factors include smoking, diabetes, genetics, and certain medications.
Common signs include bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, gum recession, loose teeth, and pain while chewing.
Early-stage gum disease (gingivitis) can often be reversed with professional cleanings and improved home care. Advanced stages require specialized treatment to manage and prevent further damage.
We offer deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), antibiotic therapy, laser gum treatment, and ongoing maintenance to control infection and preserve gum health.
Yes. Research shows a connection between periodontal disease and systemic conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory issues.
" Second to none in the Miami Valley. Dr.Par and staff are very friendly and professional ! "
" I have been going to PAR dental for 8 years. I have had such great care! I was very hesitant with any procedures due to fear of pain, as I have had with another dentist. I left today's appointment for two crowns pain free and very pleased. Great staff and quality care!"
" Awesome practice. Found them one day while searching for help with a bad toothache. Ended up being a root canal. And I’ve been in great hands ever since. Good staff and care every time. Plus they’re pretty fast with getting me appointments. 10/10 service "
" The most positive experience I've ever had at a dentist office! Dr. Par and her staff are top notch! Very kind, informative and professional. So much so, that I can't imagine ever wanting to go anywhere else now! Many thanks to everyone at Par Dental for being there when I really needed care. Keep up the great work! You should be very proud of having such an amazing team!! "
" I have not been to a dentist for years due to dental anxiety. But I was having some pain so it was time to go see a dentist. I looked for a dentist for two days before seeing Dr.Par. They got me in right away. They literally make me feel like family walking in there. Dr.Par did such an amazing job comforting me and so did her staff. I have to have some dental work done and she's the one that will be doing it all. "
" I would recommend going to Par Dental if you need a dentist. I recently had dental work done there and they are all very nice and I was happy with the results of my dental work. "
" Dr. Par did a wonderful job, and her staff was outstanding!! Very professional and caring, I highly recommend them. "
" Amazing staff. This is NOT your assembly line dental office. Personal care and concern is offered. I have serious dental anxiety and Dr. Par was amazing. My 3rd visit with her, I went BY MYSELF- I haven’t been able to go to the dentist without sedation or by myself in over 20 years! I cannot say enough good things. Thank you! "
