Periodontics & Dental Implants Manhattan and Roslyn Heights NY

Periodontics

Periodontal diseases are infections of the gums, which gradually destroy the support of your natural teeth. Your gums may recede, or become red and swollen. If left untreated, gum disease leads to tooth loss.

Why is oral hygiene so important? Adults past the age of 35 lose more teeth to gum diseases (periodontal disease) than from cavities. Three out of four adults are affected at some time in their life. The best way to prevent cavities and periodontal diseases is by good tooth brushing and flossing techniques, performed daily.

Dental Implants

Dental implants are changing the way people live. They are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth which look, feel and function like natural teeth. The person who has lost teeth regains the ability to eat virtually anything, knowing that teeth appear natural and that facial contours will be preserved so they can smile with confidence.
