Recently, our staff at Advanced Dental Concepts came across an article about the dental health benefits of Omega-3 fatty acids of marine origin.

Advanced gum disease, known as periodontitis, is a chronic inflammation caused by the accumulation of bacteria at the gum line. The condition can lead to bone and tooth loss.

If you are unsure about self-examining your mouth, please give us a call and schedule an appointment!
