Dr. John Salamone, DDS

If you have periodontal (or gum) disease, you may be a good candidate for the Perio Protect treatment program. According to the 2003 World Health Organization, more than 75% of the U.S. population over the age of 35 has some form of gum disease. If you are not sure that you have periodontal disease, you should visit your dentist for a professional evalutation, but symptoms of the disease include the following:

Bleeding gums when brushing or flossing
Receding gums (teeth appear longer)
Obvious plaque, tarter or calculus
Spaces developing between your teeth
Swollen, red or tender gums
Persistent bad breath
Sensitive teeth
Teeth are loose or mobile
