Gum disease influences the bone material in your jaw. When it comes to moderate cases, your gums become big and bloody from brushing.

As the disease progresses, the bone around the roots of the teeth begins to dissolve.

The loss of bone is really nothing unusual during the aging process. But it is the reason for subsequent teeth loss.

In the past, people would start losing their teeth between the ages of 50 and 60. Which is why grand-daddy would put on a denture.

We hope, though, you don't need to finish up that way. Although I must confess, today's denture that I'm doing is infinitely superior because we can make it secure in the mouth by performing dental implants - but that story is for another time.

What we commonly do is treatment for your gums without an operation, unlike what was done some time ago. Gum treatment lets us take away deposits that have been collecting in your gum pockets. Unfortunately, you can't do much by brushing to get at these deposits. You have bacteria that penetrate these pockets. There is much waste products from the bacteria that affect the bone.

We can do Downtown Vancouver gum disease treatment to prevent further bone loss and get rid of infection in your gums.

Furthermore, I want to tell you about how dental implants can help you keep what is left of your natural teeth even if you have lost teeth or you have crowns that need replacing.
