Keep Smiling by Fighting Gum Disease

Gum disease often starts with red, swollen gums that bleed easily during brushing and flossing.

If untreated, your gums can pull away from teeth, creating pockets that harbor harmful bacteria. This can lead to tooth loss, bone deterioration, and chronic bad breath. 

Research has also linked severe gum disease to serious health conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and stroke. Poor oral hygiene, smoking, and genetics increase your risk of developing gum disease.

We want you to avoid those issues. At the first sign of trouble, visit us for gum disease treatment in Ames, IA.
