Did you know the health of your gums is vital for keeping your smile healthy? Besides tooth decay, the biggest threat to your oral health is a preventable infection called gum (periodontal) disease. Although it can be avoided with the right oral hygiene habits and regular care from your dentist, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates at least 50% of adults have it. If you are among those who have developed the infection, you can save your smile with gum disease therapy near Sayville.
