Periodontal disease is caused by the accumulation of bacterial dental plaque. This accumulation can affect the gums and, in more advanced stages, the bone that supports the teeth. It is the most common cause of loss of teeth.

Initially, periodontal disease does not cause discomfort in the patient until its state is advanced, so it can manage to go unnoticed for some time. For this reason, it is important to go to the dentist if you perceive symptoms of periodontal disease.

In our dental clinic, we are specialized in the treatment of periodontal diseases, offering specific treatments such as gum grafts, periodontal microsurgery, bone regeneration, crown lengthening (indicated for short teeth), and even the correction of dark gums.

If you need periodontal therapy in Auburn, Alabama, or have any other dental issues, you can request an appointment at our dental clinic.
