Gum Disease – Anchorage
From the dental video library
Anchorage Periodontal Care
We know that our patients want gorgeous smiles, but a strong foundation is equally important. Professional cleanings by our incredible dental hygienists help in the prevention of gum disease, tooth decay, and bad breath. Regular exams and proper home maintenance are an essential part of this to help catch small problems before they develop into larger issues. We recommend:
- Routine check-ups
- Patient education
- Periodontal evaluation and periodontal treatment
Millions suffer from gum disease, but it often goes undetected until it causes significant problems. We can find and diagnose gum disease in the earliest stages, known as periodontal disease, if you visit us regularly. We also offer non-surgical periodontal treatment for patients who already have periodontal disease. After your thorough exam, ask the doctor or hygienist how you can prevent gum disease in your mouth or what periodontal treatment is available.
- Proven, ADA-approved home care products
- Fresh breath center and “In-House Store” to purchase most desired dental products
