If you have a more advanced stage of periodontal disease, your teeth and supporting bone structure will be affected in addition to your gum tissue. Your teeth may also become loose or uncomfortable, making gum surgery necessary.

There are several types of gum surgery that may be recommended, depending on the stage of the disease and your individual needs.

For more information about periodontal surgery and to schedule a consultation with Dr. Ira Port, please call Century Dental in Jackson, New Jersey, today at 732-928-7770.
