- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Complications in controlling blood sugar levels in diabetes
- Premature birth
- Low birth-weight babies
- And more
Perio Treatment
At Mill Creek Family Dental, we have a board certified Periodontist so we can treat all of your periodontal needs right in our office. If we detect periodontal disease during your exam, we will recommend a course of periodontal therapy to restore your gums to health. These advanced therapies are more comfortable and thorough than ever before and include:
- Soft Tissue Diode Laser to remove any damaged or diseased gum tissue and kill bacteria above and below the gum line.
- Ultrasonic Scaler to gently remove bacteria or calculus under the gum line and from the tooth root with gentle pulses of water.
- Antibiotics created specifically for the treatment of periodontal bacteria.
