Left untreated, gum disease can progress to periodontitis. This advanced gum disease often results in loose and shifting teeth, chronic bad breath, and tooth loss. Allowed to progress further, periodontitis can result in jawbone necrosis.
There is significant evidence to suggest periodontitis is a contributing factor to many systemic illnesses and diseases. These include certain types of cancer, heart attack, stroke, hypertension, gastric ulceration, and dementia. Treating gum disease before the infection spreads beyond the mouth can help to reduce your risks for these potentially serious issues.
Your staff is always extremely helpful and friendly. They explain options before we proceed and in the process so you are not surprised when a procedure occurs. Also because my family doesn’t have dental insurance and I am retired cash flow is very important and your staff make me completely aware of what to expect. Also because of this issue they are very patient with me and how I must schedule appoints far apart to be able to pay for them. I appreciate the understanding
