Ryan is a skilled prosthodontist who specializes in this type of treatment. Our offices can help you receive treatment for gum disease in Jacksonville, FL, so you can feel more comfortable smiling again.


SIGNS OF GUM DISEASE

You may not realize you have significant gum disease until the later stages of this condition, but there are a few subtle signs to look for before it gets too uncomfortable. You may notice more bad breath than usual that is not helped with antibacterial mouthwash. Your gums may also be more sensitive and bleed while brushing or flossing. As the disease progresses, your teeth may be more sensitive as well, and chewing may become painful. Finally, if you notice your gum line beginning to recede, this is a classic sign of gum disease.

If you have advanced gum disease, the good news is that there are plenty of treatment options to help. Dr. Ryan and her staff can offer some advice about how to make your mouth healthy again.
