Why should I choose a Periodontist?
Did you know that the primary cause of tooth loss in adults 35 and over is caused by periodontal (gum) disease, and that it may be preventable? Our doctors and staff will work together with you to evaluate your daily oral hygiene practices, and provide treatments that will benefit your oral and physical health. Now more than ever periodontal health is understood to be important for you and your family’s over all health. Emerging evidence demonstrates links between periodontal disease and other health problems such as diabetes, respiratory disease, stroke, osteoporosis, and preterm, low birthweight babies.
