Approximately 75% of all Americans have some form of periodontal disease, known by many as gum disease.

Research shows that untreated gum disease may have a significant affect on heart disease, stroke, low birthweight babies, ulcers, and diabetes.

TMJ symptoms may include headaches, discomfort from clicking or popping of the jaw joints, limited mouth opening and movement, earaches, and neck and shoulder pain.

Conscientious care of your mouth at home and regular maintenance visits with your dentist and periodontist are key to optimum dental health.

Maintenance therapy is an ongoing program designed to prevent disease in the gum tissues and bone supporting your teeth.
