PERIODONTAL (GUM) EVALUATION
Periodontal disease has been linked to heart disease and strokes, making the health of your gums as important as the health of your teeth. Your doctor will gently probe the space between your teeth and gums to determine if there are signs of gum disease. When disease is present, gums pull away from teeth, leaving “pockets.” Deeper pockets are signs of more severe gum disease.
