Gum Disease Dental Care

If you are in need of dental care to treat gum disease, you can turn to Dr. Hernández and the dedicated team at Nukoa Family Dentistry. Periodontal disease is a common infection of the gums and tissues supporting the teeth. If not treated properly and in a timely manner, periodontal disease can lead to serious dental health issues. In fact, periodontal disease is currently the leading cause of tooth loss in Americans. The best way to prevent periodontal disease is to practice good oral hygiene including daily flossing and brushing at home, to eat a healthy balanced diet and to visit your dentist regularly for dental cleanings and checkups.

However, even with the best of dental hygiene, periodontal disease can still occur. That is why you need a dental practice you can trust to protect the health of your gums. As a board certified Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS), Dr. Hernández is highly qualified to offer a variety of periodontal disease treatments including scaling and root planing, anti-microbial rinses, medications and even Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure (LANAP®). Your individual treatment plan will depend on the cause and severity of your gum disease.

Do not risk your long-term oral health by failing to seek treatment for periodontal disease. Contact our Duluth Periodontal Disease Treatment Practice today so we can restore the health of your gums. Our office is currently accepting new patients and we accept most PPO insurance plans. We look forward to caring for your dental health.
