General Dentistry
Periodontal disease is inflammation of the tissue around the tooth.
It begins with buildup of hardened plaque near the gum line and causes the gums to swell, redden and bleed when you brush or floss. Over time, gums may recede and underlying bones demineralize causing teeth to feel loose. Recent studies show that untreated gum disease is linked to other medical issues, such as heart disease and diabetes.
The good news is that your Woodcreek Dental Care staff can treat periodontal disease.
