Common questions
Can gum disease be cured?
Early gum disease (gingivitis) can usually be reversed. Established periodontitis can’t be cured, but it can be managed well with treatment and maintenance so it doesn’t cost you teeth. We’ll tell you honestly which stage you’re at.
Does CDCP cover gum disease treatment?
Yes, scaling and root planing are covered periodontal services for eligible CDCP patients, within the plan’s unit limits. We confirm your coverage before treatment.
How much does gum treatment cost?
From $XXX, referenced against the ODA fee guide. The main factor is how many units of scaling your gums need; you get the number in writing first.
My gums bleed when I brush. Is that serious?
It’s the most common early sign of gum disease, and the best time to act. An assessment is quick, gentle, and judgement-free.
Do I need a gum specialist?
Most gum disease is managed well in general practice. If your case needs a periodontist, we’ll say so plainly and help you get there.
