Without proper oral hygiene, the risk is that your teeth can develop cavities, but there is another potential problem that isn’t talked about as often: gum disease. This common infection is actually the most prominent dental problem in the world, and while early symptoms are minor, left untreated, it can turn into the leading cause of adult tooth loss! Thankfully, if you have red, swollen, or bleeding gums, it isn’t too late, and our team can take care of you well before any lasting damage occurs. Give us a call today so we can safeguard your smile’s foundation with periodontal therapy in Jacksonville, FL.
With our Waterlase laser, we’re able to quickly and precisely remove harmful bacteria from deep below the gum line without having to perform a minor surgery like in the past. The laser is so accurate that it leaves any healthy tissue completely untouched, and the procedure itself is so gentle that most patients don’t even need local anesthetic to remain comfortable.
