A missing tooth has a way of shrinking your menu. Crunchy, chewy, the stuff you used to love, it all quietly gets avoided. An implant replaces the whole tooth, root and all, so biting and chewing feel normal again. Booking takes about two clicks on our website.

Everyday food, coffee, and sports drinks leave surface marks right around the brackets. AIRFLOW lifts a lot of that while the braces are still on, so there's less of a surprise on the day they come off. Ready when you are, booking online is quick.

A few questions worth asking yourself:
Do your gums bleed when you floss?
Is your breath off even though you brush?
Do your gums look puffy, or like they're pulling back from your teeth?

Any of those is worth having us take a look. The good news: the earlier gum disease is caught, the simpler it usually is to treat. And treatment has come a long way, including laser options like LANAP that many of our patients find easier than they expected.

This Boston 25 story explains why your gums matter more than most people think.

Gum disease is a very common condition, with nearly half the adults in the U.S. age 30 and older having some form of gum disease. That jumps to 70% for people 65 years and older.

Before we clean, we can color the plaque so it's easy to see. Kids with braces get to spot the exact places they keep missing around the brackets, and the brushing at home usually gets better after. You can grab a time on our website in under a minute.

The powder in an AIRFLOW cleaning is made with erythritol, so it's actually a little sweet. For a kid who tenses up expecting the scrape, that first "oh, this isn't bad" moment can change how they feel about the whole visit. Booking takes about two clicks on our website.

Gums looking red and swollen since the braces went on? Bleeding a little when they brush?
A lot of parents assume that's normal now. It isn't.
It's the gums reacting to plaque parked along the brackets, and it usually settles down fast once that plaque is actually gone.
AIRFLOW clears it out without the scraping.
Booking takes about two clicks on our website.

Red and puffy along the gumline isn't just how your mouth is.
If it's looked that way for years, you've probably stopped noticing. Healthy gums are firm, pale pink, and they don't bleed.
That's an infection your body has been quietly fighting.
LANAP®: no cut, no sew, no fear.
Ready when you are, booking online is quick and easy.
