Gum disease can have an adverse effect on your smile, such as red, swollen, or bleeding gums, which can result in discomfort and pain. At McKenna Family Dentistry, we offer treatment for periodontal disease to prevent simple gum disease from progressing into a condition that can cause separation of the gum from the tooth. For more information on periodontal disease in Palo Alto, California, please contact our dentists, Dr. Dave, Dr. Beckstead and Dr. Mimi, today! You can reach our office at 650-321-4544.
