Experts in Periodontal Care
Periodontitis is inflammation of the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. It is one of the most common human diseases. As the disease progresses, chronic inflammation causes the bone of the jaw to be destroyed and the teeth to be lost. In many people, this is a gradual process that takes place over many years and, if detected and treated, can be halted.
