  • Strengthened Immune System - Gum disease treatment supports your immune system by minimizing the bacterial load in your mouth. It helps your body focus its energy on fighting off infections and maintaining overall health.

I had a very pleasant, professional and thorough initial consultation. A much better experience compared to another initial exam consultation I had at another San Ramon periodontist. I was presented with the LANAP option (the other office never mentioned it, probably because they don't have the equipment).

Best in the Bay Area

I am now 3 months after the surgery and amazed by the results!! My gums are not sore/swollen at all & do not bleed anymore! I had consulted and done treatment last year for an entire year with another dentist and they were unable to repair my gums. I have only heartfelt thanks for Dr. Kaeley...

I am now 3 months after the surgery and amazed by the results!! My gums are not sore/swollen at all & do not bleed anymore! I had consulted and done treatment last year for an entire year with another dentist and they were unable to repair my gums. I have only heartfelt thanks for Dr. Kaeley for helping me repair my gums. Dr. Kaeley will check my pockets next year and I could require another round of LANAP depending on how deep the pockets are. Dr, Kaeley is very knowledgeable & experienced. I don't think there is another gum specialist here in the Bay area like her.

Exceptional Periodontist

Dr. Kaeley is on exceptional Periodontist. The staff is very polite and they make you feel very comfortable. I would recommend Progressive Periodontics to friends and family members. This is the office to be seen if you want or need a Periodontics procedure or treatment.

ABSOLUTELY the best

I am beyond happy to have found this place. They're so caring, gentle and all the staffs are so friendly. I used to be so deathly afraid to get a basic cleaning for my teeth because no matter how much I tell them to be gentle at other places (due to sensitive teeth), they don't seem to listen...

I used to be so deathly afraid to get a basic cleaning for my teeth because no matter how much I tell them to be gentle at other places (due to sensitive teeth), they don't seem to listen but when I started going here for my gum treatments, I always look forward to going now. Please go here if you need periodontics treatment because they are ABSOLUTELY the best.

Common Questions About Periodontal Disease & Whole Body Health

How does periodontal disease affect my overall health?

Periodontal disease is a serious gum infection that damages the soft tissue and can destroy the bone that supports your teeth. If left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss and has been linked to systemic health issues such as heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory diseases. The inflammation and bacteria associated with periodontal disease can enter the bloodstream, potentially affecting other organs. Maintaining good oral hygiene is crucial for both dental and overall health.

Can periodontal disease influence my risk for heart disease?

It might, yes. Studies have shown a connection between periodontal disease and an increased risk of heart disease. The inflammation caused by gum disease may contribute to the buildup of plaque in arteries, leading to cardiovascular problems. Additionally, bacteria from infected gums can enter the bloodstream and affect heart health. Regular dental check-ups and good oral care can help mitigate these risks.

How can treating periodontal disease improve my overall health?

Treating periodontal disease can significantly enhance your overall health by reducing inflammation and the bacterial load in your body. This can lower your risk of developing related health issues, such as diabetes and heart disease. Improved oral health can also lead to better nutrition, as healthy gums and teeth make it easier to eat a balanced diet. Regular dental visits and proper oral hygiene are key to maintaining both oral and systemic health.
