Your Gums: The Foundation of Good Dental Function
Your gums protect the attachment of your teeth to your jawbone.
This protective "envelope" of tissue is very fragile but,
when your General Health (particular your immune system) is good
it has a tremendous capacity to repair itself. The by products of
the bacteria which try to live in the "pocket" below the
gumline on your teeth and accumulations of tartar on your teeth
are major threats to the health of your gums. There are also "bite"
and developmental problems that can foster problems with your gums.
That's why we offer specific services to care for your gums. Our
Gum Care Services include detailed charting, diagnostic visits,
and in-office therapy. We carefully evaluate the condition of your
gums and the underlying bone, so that it will be possible for you
to preserve this foundation for good dental health, function and
appearance for the long run
Our Gum Services include:
- Non Surgical Removal of Excess Gum Tissue where appropriate.
- Non Surgical Treatment for Gum Infections (Pyorrhea) where appropriate.
- Professional Maintenance Following Treatment for Gum Disease
- Referral to Excellent Gum Surgeons where appropriate
- Effective Home Care Recommendations
- Antibiotic and Antiseptic Preventive Services
