Longbranch Dental Center located in Greenville, TX cares greatly about each and every patient’s oral health. Along with oral health, our dentists want to bring awareness this September to national gum awareness month. Gum disease is an inflammation of the gums surrounding the tooth and affects more than half of Americans. Periodontal disease occurs when bacteria and plaque build-up around the tooth and causes major inflammation. Dr. Ronald Weaks wants to provide you with some tips and prevention tools to help keep gum disease far, far away.
