Lake Orion Family Dentistry

There’s nothing sexy about gum disease. It can cause chronic bad breath, result in permanent tooth loss and, as current research suggests, lead to an increased risk of other systemic diseases, like arthritis, diabetes, and some cardiovascular diseases. Conventional treatments for gum disease, like surgery and antibiotic therapy, have serious drawbacks but advances in dental technology have yielded a new treatment option: lasers. Lake Orion, MI dentist, Dr. Brad Greenfield, discusses how laser gum therapy is changing the game and helping Americans enjoy better oral health.
