6 months. Same tooth. Different biology.

On the left image, you can see a significant bone defect and infection around the tooth. The dark area between the roots represents bone loss caused by periodontal disease.

On the right, after treatment, you can see resolution of the infection and bone fill in the defect. This is what proper diagnosis and periodontal therapy can achieve.

Bone loss does not always mean tooth loss — when treated correctly and early.

If you’ve been told you have bone loss, deep pockets, or infection around your teeth, don’t ignore it.

Call us today at 330.867.3320 to schedule a periodontal evaluation. Healthy bone is the foundation of a healthy smile.
