Your gums are vital to your oral and general health. While they do keep your teeth in place, they are also the first line of defense against the dangerous bacteria that are present in your mouth. Besides problems such as lost teeth and bad breath, gum disease can affect your respiratory and cardiovascular systems and create complications for health issues such as diabetes. Our dentist, Dr. Christopher Di Turi, offer periodontal treatments in Shrewsbury, New Jersey, to keep your smile healthy and beautiful.
