Gum Care
Periodontal disease, or gum disease, is an infection of the tissues that surround and support the teeth. It is caused in part by a sticky film, called plaque, which constantly forms on teeth. Plaque contains bacteria that can infect the gums and supporting tissue and harden into tartar. While it is painless initially, if left untreated, gum disease can lead to tooth loss. Worse yet, it's been linked to heart disease and other serious health conditions. We take a proactive approach to caring for your gums by offering:
