Periodontal Therapy Edmonton
Advanced AI Diagnostics
Dr. Chersa’s practice uses **FDA-cleared AI diagnostic software** that evaluates your radiographs for early calculus deposits and bone loss. This technology allows us to flag issues long before clinical symptoms—like pain or loose teeth—ever appear.
"Treating symptoms alone is a temporary measure—ensuring the problem will recur."
Why AI Matters?
- Identifies hard-to-see subgingival calculus.
- Precisely estimates bone levels.
- Tracks pocket depths with mathematical accuracy.
- Customizes treatment plans for optimal outcomes.
Stages of Periodontal Disease
| Stage | Clinical Signs | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Gingivitis | Red, swollen gums; bleeding while brushing. | Reversible |
| Mild Periodontitis | Early pocket formation; beginning bone loss. | Manageable |
| Moderate Periodontitis | Deeper pockets; recession; persistent bad breath. | Manageable |
| Severe Periodontitis | Significant bone loss; loose or shifting teeth. | Irreversible Bone Loss |
