He absolutely loves dentistry and feels he is a lucky man to get to work in a career he enjoys so much. It also makes his continuing education pleasant. All phases of dentistry are covered at Lawn Dental Center, including root canals, surgical extractions, periodontic and orthodontic work.

What Are Periodontal Pockets? First, let's start with what periodontal pockets are. Periodontal pockets form when your gums pull away from your teeth.

As pockets grow deeper, more bone loss occurs, and eventually, this can lead to tooth loss if gum disease continues untreated. Main Causes of Periodontal
