Continuing Smile Care
The bacteria that cause periodontal (gum) disease and tooth decay are constantly present in our mouths. Home care is our first defense against this onslaught. However, brushing and flossing isn’t enough. That’s why we recommend a minimum of two visits each year to our office.
We offer many services that make your visit more comfortable and can help you keep your teeth healthy for life. As a comprehensive dental practice with specialized training, we can give you the care you deserve.
Our hygienists are skilled in controlling periodontal disease. Because it is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults, we are diligent in our approach to making sure periodontal disease doesn’t destroy your smile. If you have noticed bleeding while brushing or flossing, you are experiencing the early stages of the disease. Please call our office and set up an appointment. We have many advanced treatments that can keep the disease from ruining your smile.
(Periodontal disease may significantly impact pregnant individuals or those with diabetes or cardiovascular disease. Individuals with periodontal disease may have significantly increased risk for heart diseases and stroke. Women with periodontitis may have increased risk for delivering pre-term, low birth weight babies. Preliminary evidence suggests that periodontal infections may also be associated with lung disease and other remote site infections.)
