Periodontal Care Services

Even if you brush correctly, missing a small area, such as the spaces between your teeth, can allow hundreds of bacterial strains to build up around the bases of your teeth, irritating the gums. When left unchecked, the inflamed gums pull away from the teeth, exposing root and gum.

At this, the earliest and most treatable stage of gum disease, patients don’t normally seek treatment because they aren’t in pain. Unfortunately, seeking treatment after you have pain may mean losing your teeth. You may also increase your chances of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and other serious health conditions.

If you have puffy or bleeding gums, schedule an appointment with us right away. Our dedicated periodontal team offers a variety of treatments to help you.  Call our West Cottage Grove Road practice at 608.839.4554 or our North Sherman Avenue practice in Madison at 608.240.1001.
