Periodontal Care... Bringing Teeth and Gums Back to Health. Periodontal disease, also know as gum disease, results from bacterial infection on the teeth below the gumline which affect surrounding bon and tissue. In time, the layers of bacteria accumulate leading to destruction of bone and tissue. If treated properly, periodontal disease can be reversed and teeth can be saved. Advancing disease may require surgical treatment to reach areas you may not see or feel well below the gumline. When left untreated, gum disease can lead to bone as well as tooth loss.
Dental Implants... the Closest Thing to Natural Teeth.
Dental implants are considered the finest replacement for natural teeth and aid in preserving facial bone. Slippage, embarrassment, and discomfort associated with dentures, and the "shrunken look" of the face when teeth are missing, can be successfully corrected. Dental implants provide a stable foundation for the attachment of replacement teeth. Unlike crowns and bridges, which require that nearby teeth be cut down to create an anchor, implants leave remaining teeth intact and require only normal cleaning techniques. Improved appearance and heath, convenience, comfort and self-confidence allow patients to live a fuller, more active life.
Medical Considerations of Gum Disease
Current dental and medical studies indicate that periodontal disease has a significant influence on total body health and is a major risk factor for systemic diseases including heart disease, stroke and premature low birth weight babies. In addition, health factors such as smoking, genetic susceptibility, diabetes and poor oral health affect the development of periodontal disease. Our friendly and professional staff uses state-of-the-art equipment to provide for your comfort and give you the best care possible.
