Are Periodontal Problems Keeping You From Your Best Smile?
Are you suffering from gum disease? Bone loss? Receding gums? These are three top oral health and smile concerns of periodontal patients. Periodontal problems interfere with your health, happiness, and quality of life. This progressive disease is caused by a harmful and pathologic shift in the natural balance of oral bacteria in the mouth. This initiates the breakdown of the bone around your teeth and inflammation in your gums. If left untreated, gum disease has the potential to cause damage to other parts of the body. Dr. Alexander Volchonok is the periodontist many in our community turn to for advanced gum and bone care. He and our caring team offer the highly effective treatment you need when periodontal problems threaten your health and smile.

Stages of Gum Disease
Healthy Gums
Healthy gums are flush against the sides of the teeth with no signs of recession or inflammation.
Gingivitis
Gingivitis causes gum tissue to become red and inflamed, pulling away from the teeth slightly.
Periodontitis
Periodontitis causes gums to become red and inflamed as bacteria infects the tooth and creates severe gum recession.
