Yes, teeth can often be saved if you have periodontal disease. If you act quickly to get treatment and keep up good oral hygiene after your deep cleaning, you’ll likely be able to keep your teeth. If you go without treatment until the condition becomes severe, your teeth may be at risk.
Your dentist will go over your options with you if your teeth are too far gone or if you’ve already lost a tooth. Depending on your condition, you may be eligible for dental implants or other tooth replacement options.
