Monroe, CT Periodontist, Dr. Richard Amato, Raises Awareness of Specialist Advantage for Qualified Gum Disease Treatment
Monroe, CT (PRWEB) August 15, 2017 -- Dr. Richard Amato is raising awareness of the advantage of receiving gum disease treatment from a qualified periodontist. Practicing as a periodontist in Monroe, CT since 1989, Dr. Amato understands that many patients may not know the difference between a dentist and a periodontist. He is educating his community on how to choose the right clinician for their periodontal treatment.
Every periodontist is a dentist, but only 3 percent of dentists are periodontists. Periodontists are specialists who have completed three additional years of training focused on diagnosing, preventing and treating periodontal disease, as well as the placement and maintenance of dental implants. Periodontal disease or gum disease many not be noticeable by patients at first. Swollen, red or bleeding gums and bad breath may show as early symptoms of gingivitis, the first stage of gum disease. However, receiving a diagnosis from a skilled periodontist is highly recommended.
After Dr. Amato determines if a patient has periodontal disease, he creates a custom treatment plan. Offering scaling and root planing, periodontal maintenance and LANAP® laser gum disease treatment, Dr. Amato advises an effective and minimally invasive treatment option to restore patients’ health. If left untreated, periodontal disease can lead to gum recession, tooth loss, heart disease and stroke.

He offers the latest training and technology including laser dentistry at his practice, Advanced Periodontics and Dental Implant Center of Connecticut LLC.
