dental servicesGum disease, or periodontal disease, is usually a result of an infection in your gum tissues caused by bacteria in plaque. If the periodontal disease is not treated, your gums can start to move away from your teeth, and you may experience bone and tooth loss.

Symptoms of periodontal disease include swollen, red or bleeding gums, bad breath and loose teeth. It may also be painful to chew, and your teeth may appear to be longer due to receding gums. Our dentists and team will be able to ascertain whether you are experiencing periodontal disease after an examination in our office.
