Gum disease can harm the bone in your jaw. For milder cases, your gums become inflamed and would probably bleed from brushing.

As the disease progresses, the bone around the roots of the teeth will slowly dissolve.

Losing bone is actually quite common as the years pile on. But it is to blame for eventually losing your teeth.

Long time ago, people's teeth would start to go by the time they were 50 or 60. That is why your grand-dad can't live without a denture.

But hopefully you have no need to end up the same way. Although I do have to say, the denture we do today is miles better because we are able to make it secure in the mouth with dental implants on either side - but that's another story.

What we can often do is therapy on your gums that comes without the need for an operation, unlike what they did before. Gum therapy cleans up the deposits that have accumulated in the gum pockets. There is not much you can do even with brushing to clear up these deposits. They have bacteria that go deep into these pockets. What comes from the bacteria is waste that corrode the bone.

Allow us to give you Wilkes-Barre / Trucksville gum disease treatment to prevent further bone loss and cure you of gum infection.

Furthermore, I want to alert you about how dental implants can be an advantage by keeping your original teeth even if a few of your teeth have gone or you have to change crowns.
