we are committed to focusing on your dental hygiene and overall oral health. This means decreasing inflammation in your mouth through periodontal dentistry. When you have active periodontal disease, the typical routines of home maintenance, including daily dental hygiene and teeth brushing, may not be effective enough, as those methods generally focus on areas of the tooth that are above the gum line. At Smile Line Dental Center, we make sure that you are on a twice-per-year frequency of maintenance and/or preventative care schedule. Some patients require more frequent visits depending on their own individual health needs.
