Gum Disease and Lost Teeth

The most common assumption about tooth loss is that it occurs from decay. But the main reason for tooth loss is gum disease. Often times, it can go unnoticed right up to the point of losing your teeth.

Symptoms are gums that bleed when flossing or brushing, and loose or shifting teeth. If treated in the early stages, you have options that can help you avoid surgery. There are a variety of nonsurgical methods that work well to control this infection.
