Dental Cleaning (Periodontal Therapy if necessary) Although twice-daily brushings and regular flossing are excellent for maintenance between office visits, regular examinations and cleanings is an absolute necessity if you are to maintain a healthy mouth. Our staff will help you keep your teeth and gums strong and disease-free.

Unfortunately, periodontal (gum) disease can lead to more than just an unsightly smile it can cause loss of teeth and, eventually, if left untreated, serious health problems. Called gingivitis in its early stages, periodontal disease is caused by excessive toxic bacteria (found in plaque) that attack your mouth's soft tissues. Early warning signs of the disease include red, swollen, bleeding gums. If caught early, we can help you reverse the damage or, if detected late, we can use one of many effective cosmetic dentistry procedures to restore your mouth to a healthy, beautiful state.
