Do you have swollen,
bleeding gums? Then you may have periodontal
disease, and the sooner you eliminate this threat to
your dental health, the better.
Dental diseases are the
most common diseases affecting people besides the
common cold! Even healthy looking teeth may have gum
disease.
75% of the population
has some form of periodontal disease, but the
majority do not even realize it!
Left
untreated, periodontal gum disease can cause serious
loss of teeth and bone. Plus, it has recently
been linked to heart disease and stroke!
Here
are the ADA early warning signs of Periodontal Disease:
- Gums that bleed
when you brush your teeth.
- Gums that are red,
swollen or tender.
- Gums that are
pulled away from teeth.
- Pus between teeth
and gums when gums pressed.
- Permanent teeth
that are loose or separating.
- Change in the way
your teeth fit together when biting.
- Any changes in fit
of partial dentures.
- Persistent bad
breath.
The good news is that
Lawrence Dental Solutions can quickly and painlessly
help you detect "perio" early so it can be controlled.
We call this our "soft tissue management treatment
program".
This treatment consists
of our professional in-office care that detoxifies your
tooth surfaces below the gum line and in between the
teeth. Then a medicine is used to flush out the bacteria
that caused the infection. Don't let this make you
nervous, this is a gentle non-surgical treatment, and we
offer you the ultimate
in patient comfort.
After this treatment is
conducted, we will recommend the appropriate interval of
maintenance care. You will probably need to
increase your hygiene visits from two to maybe 3 or 4
times per year to maintain the health of your gums and
teeth, but our affordable
prices and easy financing make this convenient
for you and your family. All
of our dentist
services are healthy and safe - we've been
mercury free since 1983.
