HomeServicesPeriodontal Disease

Periodontal disease, or gum disease, is an infection that affects the gums. When plaque is left along the gum line from poor brushing and lack of flossing, it can lead to this condition which then brings on tooth decay or loss.

Signs of gum disease can include inflamed gums, gums that bleed easily, receding gums as well as bad breath, and even painful or loose teeth.
