Gum Disease, also know as Periodontitis, is an infection of the gums and bone that surround the teeth.
Gum disease has been estimated by the Surgeon General to effect over 80% of Adult Americans.
Gum disease is the #1 cause of tooth loss.
Dr. Cortesi uses Laser technology when treating gum disease. Fear of periodontal treatment all but vanishes when his patients find out no scalpel or sutures will be used.
