Undetected gum and bone disease
We feel that prevention
is an overused word in our vocabulary but we all know it works. You see
it in what you do every day. Who wouldn't rather prevent a crisis than
manage one?
In the Cerritos area awareness of gum and underlying bone disease is very low. Only 50% of
the population visits a dentist on a regular basis. Of that 50%, 80%
have some degree of
gum and bone disease. It is an epidemic. Were this
any other disease, we would be calling on the CDC for immediate action!
Some signs of periodontal disease are: bleeding gums, redness of gum
tissue, swelling of gums around the teeth, breath odor, receding gums,
mobility of teeth. At our office, we are very gum disease oriented. We
inspect the gum and bone of your mouth at each examination with the
doctors. We use periodontal probing and measure levels of bone for every
tooth in your mouth.
Please feel free to us at (877) 855-0051 for complete details on how we can
help you detect and prevent gum disease.
