What? Termites in Your Bone? Let Me Explain.
We Can Help!
The best way to preventing gums disease is: getting regular checkups with your dentist, a cleaning every 3-6 months, flossing and brushing 2-3 times daily. Treating gum disease varies depending on how severe it is. Sometimes, it’s just a simple cleaning. Other times, we will first need to go under the gums and get rid of the bacteria that live there. Other times, we may need to perform surgery on your gums. The worst case scenario is that you would need tooth extraction, dentures, and dental implants. Let’s not get to that point.
At A+ Family Dentistry, we have incorporated “Lasers Gum Disease Treatment” into our practice. It is a great way to help treat periodontal disease without surgery! However, there are times when surgery is needed. If that is the case, we do have one of the best Periodontist in town, Dr. Gary Sigafoos. He can help add jaw bone wherever possible and remove most of the bacteria infection in the jaw bone.
