Gum Disease Treatment

Periodontal disease, commonly known as “gum disease,” occurs when bacteria infect the parts of the gums around the teeth, forming pockets and destroying tissue and bone if left untreated. Worse yet, the infections can lead to teeth loss, and have even been linked to more serious problems like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and low birth-weight babies. Dr Miyamoto believes that periodontal disease is preventable and controllable, and the professional team at Metro West Dental makes periodontal disease treatment process easy. As a department chairman of Creighton University School of Dentistry, Dr Miyamoto lead the Omaha Metro Area in periodontal disease treatment experience, and continually work with the top periodontist nationally and internationally in research to offer you the latest technology and techniques.
