Periodontics is subspecialty of dentistry that works with the structures that surround and that support the teeth. Therefore, dentists who specialize in this area may treat teeth and gum diseases. Since films of plaque build and grow on teeth over time, the teeth’s support system can suffer. One of the most common conditions this type of medicine handles is gingivitis. This common dental problem can lead to receding gums and other problems with the teeth over time.
