PERIODONTAL
You can’t have a beautifully healthy mouth, sweet breath and a radiant smile when your gums are diseased. About 90% of the adult population has some form of periodontal disease. We aggressively treat periodontal disease to eliminate infection and preserve the bone and gums that hold your teeth in place. In addition to the local effects that periodontal disease has in your mouth, gum inflammation and infection causes serious problems with your heart, and many other systemic conditions.

According to the AARP,
"people who have periodontal disease are nearly twice as likely to suffer from coronary artery disease as those who don't."
