It is estimated that three out of every four adults will experience gum disease at some point in their lives. The problem is that gum disease sets in slowly, in a way that tends to be trivialized. Unfortunately, it's only when the situation becomes critical for your teeth and oral health that you start to notice the important symptoms. That's why regular visits to your dentist are so important.<\/p>\n<p>At Clinique Dentaire Wayne Dionne in Edmundston, our skilled and experienced team is ready to welcome you and provide you with the care you need.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-text-block\"><div class=\"vce-text-block-wrapper vce\" id=\"el-a5163d8e\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-a5163d8e\"><p><a class=\"blue-btn\" href=\"\/en\/contact\/#appointment\">Make an appointment<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-col vce-col--xs-100p vce-col--xs-visible vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-100p vce-col--sm-visible vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-auto vce-col--md-visible vce-col--md-last vce-col--lg-auto vce-col--lg-visible vce-col--lg-last vce-col--xl-auto vce-col--xl-visible vce-col--xl-last\" id=\"el-2c82ae98\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-2c82ae98\"><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-2c82ae98\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-container full-width anim-rotate no-mobile vce-single-image--align-center\"><div class=\"vce vce-single-image-wrapper\" id=\"el-77744457\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-77744457\"><figure><div class=\"vce-single-image-figure-inner\" style=\"width: 256px;\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-inner vce-single-image--absolute\" style=\"width: 100%; padding-bottom: 100.391%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"vce-single-image lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/drwaynedionne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Logo-Dr-Wayne-Dionne-en.svg\" data-img-data-src=\"https:\/\/drwaynedionne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Logo-Dr-Wayne-Dionne-en.svg\" data-attachment-id=\"1347\" alt=\"Logo Dr Wayne Dionne en\" title=\"Logo Dr Wayne Dionne en\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\"><\/div><\/div><figcaption hidden=\"\"><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-row-container\" data-vce-boxed-width=\"true\"><div class=\"vce-row vce-row--col-gap-30 pt-110 plr-370 vce-row-equal-height vce-row-content--top\" id=\"el-5cce35d4\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-5cce35d4\"><div class=\"vce-row-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\"><div class=\"vce-col vce-col--md-auto vce-col--xs-1 vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-last vce-col--lg-last vce-col--xl-last vce-col--md-first vce-col--lg-first vce-col--xl-first\" id=\"el-4dbd32a1\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-4dbd32a1\"><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-4dbd32a1\"><div class=\"vce-text-block center\"><div class=\"vce-text-block-wrapper vce\" id=\"el-d5a34496\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-d5a34496\"><h2>Diagnosis and symptoms <span class=\"nowrap\">of gum disease<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-row-container\" data-vce-boxed-width=\"true\"><div class=\"vce-row vce-row--has-col-background vce-row--col-gap-0 vce-row-wrap--reverse pl-45  pr-58 pt-120 pb-45 vce-row-equal-height vce-row-content--top\" id=\"el-3d24b070\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-3d24b070\"><div class=\"vce-row-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\"><div class=\"vce-col vce-element--has-background vce-col--xs-100p vce-col--xs-visible vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-100p vce-col--sm-visible vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-54-5p vce-col--md-visible vce-col--md-first vce-col--lg-54-5p vce-col--lg-visible vce-col--lg-first vce-col--xl-54-5p vce-col--xl-visible vce-col--xl-first br-53 \" id=\"el-0b12773a\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-0b12773a\"><div class=\"vce-content-background-container\"><\/div><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-0b12773a\"><div class=\"vce-text-block pl-94 pt-170 pr-90 pb-140\"><div class=\"vce-text-block-wrapper vce\" id=\"el-39005ec3\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-39005ec3\"><h3 class=\"fs48 regular pb-60\">Two distinct diseases<\/h3>\n<p>Gum disease is quite common, since the gums are directly exposed to the action of bacteria, particularly plaque and tartar. Their degree of severity varies, however. A distinction can be made between gingivitis, a mild to moderate inflammation, and periodontitis, a deep-seated infection that affects not only the gums, but also other periodontal tissues (cementum, ligament) and even the alveolar bone. This disease generally develops when gingivitis deepens. However, such aggravation can be prevented by treating inflammation in its early stages. Cleaning and scaling, along with good oral hygiene habits, are usually enough to stop it.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-col vce-col--xs-100p vce-col--xs-visible vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-100p vce-col--sm-visible vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-45-5p vce-col--md-visible vce-col--md-last vce-col--lg-45-5p vce-col--lg-visible vce-col--lg-last vce-col--xl-45-5p vce-col--xl-visible vce-col--xl-last no-pl pl-50 pb-30-mob\" id=\"el-5fa19ed9\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-5fa19ed9\"><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-5fa19ed9\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-container full-width br-53 vce-single-image--align-center\"><div class=\"vce vce-single-image-wrapper\" id=\"el-38e377ae\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-38e377ae\"><figure><div class=\"vce-single-image-figure-inner\" style=\"width: 774px;\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-inner vce-single-image--absolute\" style=\"width: 100%; padding-bottom: 90.3101%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"vce-single-image lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/drwaynedionne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Deux-maladies-distinctes.jpg\" data-img-data-src=\"https:\/\/drwaynedionne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Deux-maladies-distinctes.jpg\" data-attachment-id=\"458\" alt=\"Deux maladies distinctes\" title=\"Deux maladies distinctes\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 774px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 774\/699;\"><\/div><\/div><figcaption hidden=\"\"><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-row-container\" data-vce-boxed-width=\"true\"><div class=\"vce-row vce-row--has-col-background vce-row--col-gap-0 pl-45 pr-58 pb-45 vce-row-equal-height vce-row-content--top\" id=\"el-509a277f\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-509a277f\"><div class=\"vce-row-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\"><div class=\"vce-col vce-col--xs-100p vce-col--xs-visible vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-100p vce-col--sm-visible vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-45p vce-col--md-visible vce-col--md-first vce-col--lg-45p vce-col--lg-visible vce-col--lg-first vce-col--xl-45p vce-col--xl-visible vce-col--xl-first no-pr pr-50 pb-30-mob\" id=\"el-b181d3ca\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-b181d3ca\"><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-b181d3ca\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-container full-width br-53 vce-single-image--align-center\"><div class=\"vce vce-single-image-wrapper\" id=\"el-2750cf63\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-2750cf63\"><figure><div class=\"vce-single-image-figure-inner\" style=\"width: 776px;\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-inner vce-single-image--absolute\" style=\"width: 100%; padding-bottom: 119.459%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"vce-single-image lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/drwaynedionne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Signes-et-symptomes-a-surveiller.jpg\" data-img-data-src=\"https:\/\/drwaynedionne.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Signes-et-symptomes-a-surveiller.jpg\" data-attachment-id=\"460\" alt=\"Signes et sympt\u00f4mes \u00e0 surveiller\" title=\"Signes et sympt\u00f4mes \u00e0 surveiller\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 776px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 776\/927;\"><\/div><\/div><figcaption hidden=\"\"><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-col vce-element--has-background vce-col--xs-100p vce-col--xs-visible vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-100p vce-col--sm-visible vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-55p vce-col--md-visible vce-col--md-last vce-col--lg-55p vce-col--lg-visible vce-col--lg-last vce-col--xl-55p vce-col--xl-visible vce-col--xl-last br-53 \" id=\"el-2e0db77d\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-2e0db77d\"><div class=\"vce-content-background-container\"><\/div><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-2e0db77d\"><div class=\"vce-text-block pl-94 pt-140 pb-130   pr-90\"><div class=\"vce-text-block-wrapper vce\" id=\"el-e3488291\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-e3488291\"><h2 class=\"black fs48 regular pb-45 \">Signs and symptoms to watch out for<\/h2>\n<p class=\"pb-25\">Gum disease can be hard to detect, especially in its early stages.

For example, a deep cleaning under local anaesthetic, known as root planing, may be necessary to remove plaque and tartar accumulated under the gums.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fs16 bold pb-25\">In some cases, it may be helpful to reshape the bone and gums to restore a healthy oral structure. When necessary, a gum or bone graft may also be considered to strengthen weakened areas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"fs16 bold\">After periodontal treatment, maintaining good oral health is essential. This means frequent visits to your Edmundston dental clinic for close follow-up and frequent cleanings. These appointments are very important not only to keep a close eye on the condition of your mouth and teeth, but also to prevent any recurrence of gum disease.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce vce-separator-container vce-separator--align-left vce-separator--style-solid\" id=\"el-201ca955\" data-vce-do-apply=\"margin el-201ca955\"><div class=\"vce-separator vce-separator--color-ba-255-255-255-0-3 vce-separator--width-50 vce-separator--thickness-1\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border padding background  el-201ca955\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-text-block white fs16\"><div class=\"vce-text-block-wrapper vce\" id=\"el-2d9e4694\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-2d9e4694\"><p>Gum disease can have serious repercussions on your oral health if not treated in time, including tooth loss, serious infections and irreversible damage to bone and supporting tissues. The slightest worrying sign concerning your gums should alert you and prompt you to make an appointment with your dentist as soon as possible.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div
