Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a bacterial infection of the gums and tissues that support your teeth. It is caused most often by the build-up of plaque and tartar when teeth are not routinely brushed and flossed. Research shows that 47.2 percent of American adults over the age of 30 have mild, moderate or severe gum disease, which is the leading cause of adult tooth loss.
It is also possible to have gum disease without experiencing any symptoms. The esthetic results of ceramic crowns with custom shades in the smile zone are often truly remarkable. Composite fillings have become increasing more popular in recent years. However, composite filling are extremely technique sensitive. To be placed properly and ensure years of service, a highly skilled clinician must place them.
In our office, Dr. Geck places every restoration to ensure the highest possible quality you deserve. Do not take aspirin or ibuprofen for a dental emergency because they are anticoagulants which can cause excessive bleeding.
