Periodontal or gum disease is an infection that attacks the tissues that hold your teeth in place. Periodontal disease is an extreme case of gum infection that begins with gingivitis.

Maintaining good dental hygiene is an essential aspect of preventing and treating periodontal (gum) disease. When it comes to oral health, many people merely focus on achieving a bright, white smile and overlook their gums. But, healthy teeth need healthy gums.

Plaque is the transparent, slippery coating that constantly forms on our teeth. It is the result of the interaction between sugars in the food and drinks we consume, and the bacteria that is naturally found in our mouths. It may look harmless enough, but plaque can be seriously bad news for your teeth.

As much as food is one of the best things in the world, it is also the reason your teeth get dirty. But that’s not the problem because you can always brush your teeth after eating. The bad news is that a toothbrush isn’t flexible enough to reach the deeper parts of your dental formula.

Despite our best attempts to preserve the health and condition of our teeth for as long as possible, over time it is perfectly natural for damage and decay to occur. When this happens, patients need restorative dentistry treatment to address the problems affecting the health and function of their teeth, and to make their smile look and feel even better than before.
