The health of your gums and your teeth can have a tremendous impact on your overall health. Gum disease has been linked to many medical conditions and disease including stroke, diabetes, heart disease, early dementia, Alzheimer's, and even several cancers. That’s why dentists recommend that San Francisco Bay area patients go get their teeth cleaned and inspected at least twice per year.

But while many patients are familiar with the regular cleaning they get every 6 months, not everyone is aware of the need for periodontal maintenance on a more frequent basis. San Ramon patients who have suffered from gum disease need periodontal maintenance in order to prevent the disease from returning and continued destruction of their gum and bone. This type of procedure is different from the routine cleanings, called a prophylaxis, which is intended only for patients who have never had gum disease and serves to maintain their excellent oral health and prevent cavities. Periodontal maintenance, on the other hand, is specific for patients who have received treatment for gum disease at any time in their lives. Once someone has had gum disease, they are always susceptible to it in the future, and need special attention on the maintaining their disease-free gums. These appointments take longer than a routine prophylactic cleaning and great care is taken to closely inspect their teeth and gums so that any problem can be caught early and treated before developing into a bigger (and more expensive) problem.
