Periodontal Care in Montvale

Gum disease is a progressive condition if it is not treated by a dentist. Periodontal disease causes inflammation, redness and receding gums. When the tissue of the gums becomes infected, it can lead to tooth loss. Having the condition treated with general dentistry is crucial to protect the teeth and gums from irreparable damage. In many cases, gum disease is caused by inadequate dental hygiene, which is easily corrected through education from Bear Brook Dental Care.
