Take care of your gums and protect the foundation of your smile.
Healthy gums are essential to keep your teeth strong, stable and aesthetic. When there's inflammation, bleeding or loss of support, it doesn't just affect oral health: it can also change the appearance of your smile and put your teeth at risk.
At Moran Dental Clinic we treat gum disease with a precise, preventive and personalized approach, aiming to preserve your natural teeth and improve the health of your smile.
"Healthy gums are the foundation of a beautiful, long-lasting smile."
Periodontics is the specialty in charge of preventing, diagnosing and treating diseases that affect the gums and the tissues that support the teeth.
These tissues include the gum, the bone and the ligament that holds the teeth firmly in place.
When they're damaged, teeth can start to shift, gums can recede and, in advanced cases, there can be tooth loss.

If you have any of these signs, it's best to address them in time.
Periodontal disease can start with simple gum inflammation, but if it's not treated it can progress and affect the bone that supports your teeth.

Bleeding gums are not normal. They're a sign your mouth needs attention.
At Moran Dental Clinic we don't just aim to control periodontal disease. We also take care that your gums look healthy, harmonious and natural.
We evaluate the cause of the problem, the state of the bone, the amount of tartar, hygiene, the bite and the factors that may be affecting your periodontal health.
