Periodontal (Gum) Treatment and Surgery

Periodontal Diseases are caused by bacterial infections that attack gums, ligaments, and bone. There are several kinds of periodontal diseases including gingivitis and periodontitis. Treatment methods depend upon the disease and how far the condition has progressed. To keep your teeth and gums healthy brush your teeth thoroughly twice a day, carefully clean between teeth, eat a balanced diet, and schedule regular dental checkups. [read more]

Nitrous Oxide / IV Sedation

During dental and oral surgery procedures, local anesthesia is typically administered. However, some procedures require the use of sedative drugs, which helps the patient to relax, and medicative drugs, which are used to cause anesthesia, a deep sleep. The sedative and anesthetic medications are typically given intravenously (IV), which allows the medication to take immediate effect and easy administration of additional medications.
