Gum Disease...Can Be Helped At Northland Dental LLC & The Center for Dental & Facial Aesthetics
 

The American Dental Association says that over 75-80% of all adults, even in the Gladstone, Kansas City and Liberty area, have or will have some form of gum disease.

Gum disease, or more correctly called "periodontal disease", is a bacterial infection in the gums and supporting structures of the teeth.  It can be divided into several categories.

The first stage is called "gingivitis" and is characterized by gum tissue that is red, puffy, and bleeds easily when touched with a toothbrush, floss or dental instrument.

The second, third, and fourth stages are initial, moderate, and advanced "periodontal disease", respectively.  These stages are different from gingivitis because the infection has destroyed the bone supporting the teeth, causing eventual tooth loss.  At Northland Dental LLC & The Center for Dental & Facial Aesthetics the treatment is more involved at these stages, usually consisting of a special cleaning with anesthesia and sometimes gum surgery.

Please call Northland Dental LLC & The Center for Dental & Facial Aesthetics at (877) 283-8758 for a complete evaluation of your potential gum disease.
