Periodontal

Our practice is proud to offer conservative non surgical periodontal therapy. Gum disease is a chronic infection that is a result of bacterial plaque and tartar beneath the gum line. This bacteria is responsible for eventually destroying the bone that supports the teeth and inevitably will lead to tooth loss if left untreated. Sadly, periodontal infections are usually silent, and can be present for many years without any significant symptoms including pain. This is why regular visits to your dentist are important especially if other health problems are present such as heart disease or diabetes. However, there are subtle signs to look for such as red or inflamed gums: gums that bleed spontaneously and persistent bad breath. Our office offers an organized system for early detection, diagnosis, non-surgical treatment and maintenance of the inflammatory phase of periodontal disease, and for the early detector of premalignant or malignant changes of the oral tissues as related to oral cancer. This includes individualized treatment performed by the dentist and hygienist to reduce infection-including recommendations for daily home care and maintenance.
