Gum Disease Treatment
Protect your oral health and overall wellness with advanced, gentle care for every stage of gum disease.
What is gum disease?
Gum disease (periodontal disease) is a common condition caused by bacteria that damage the gums and supporting bone around your teeth. In its early stages, it may cause redness, bleeding, or bad breath—while advanced cases can lead to bone loss or tooth loss if untreated.
The good news: with proper diagnosis and modern treatment, gum disease can be managed effectively and often reversed.
