One of the defining characteristics of gum disease is the detachment of the gum tissue from the surfaces of the teeth. When this happens, pockets form along the gum line and trap plaque and bacteria, which further exacerbate the problem. Over time, the tissue can gradually wear away and result in a receding gum line.
As gum disease worsens and spreads to the deeper tissue levels, your teeth's natural support structures can begin to deteriorate. This means that your teeth can loosen and shift out of position unless you receive immediate treatment. Receding gums often serve as a warning sign that deterioration is occurring and should be evaluated by a dentist in Plainville, CT as soon as possible.
It is important to be aware of the effect that oral health can have on your entire body. Symptoms such as bad breath or inflammation are minor in comparison to the larger consequences of bad oral hygiene. In fact, patients with periodontal gum disease have a much bigger risk of contracting more serious illnesses such as diabetes, cancer, and heart disease.
Chronic bad breath is a common symptom of periodontal gum disease. It happens when bacteria collects in the mouth and creates an unpleasant odor. The problem can be exacerbated once pockets form along the gum line and trap plaque and bacteria. Visiting Dr. David Edelson for gum disease treatment in Plainville, CT may be the only solution in this case.

Initially had a cleaning performed. She was incredible. Very delicate and polite but needed to do what she needed to do. Did an awesome job! Extremely pleased with the cleaning and initial appointment/assessment. Next had to do a big filling. The Dr and his assistant were very polite, courteous and professional. Always concerned about me and if I was doing ok.
I couldn't be more pleased. I had to find another dentist because my dentist is in the process of retiring. Had him since 1984, so it's not easy. My brother and his family referred me to this new doctor. Not that I enjoy going to the dentist, but at least I know I'll be taken care of very well. 5 + stars

It took me years to find a dentist office that I liked and would go back to and this is finally the one that made a difference. All of the staff were super friendly and very quickly eased my anxiety over going to the dentist. The office and rooms were nice, clean, and welcoming. They took the time to make sure all of my questions/concerns were answered/addressed, yet they were also quick with the procedure and it was painless. I am happy to be able to consider this my dentist office.

Luckily Hygienist Tina encouraged me to get overdue X-rays at my cleaning yesterday. My teeth feel great. Turned out I was having a problem under an ancient filling that I had no symptoms with. Dr R fixed it up this AM without ANY pain or nervousness. Oh gosh I should remember my dental assistant' name! She has, for years, been able to coach me thru. I am such a scaredy-cat. Portia! Dr R thanks for keeping me distracted with cool stories. Love you all!

I've been going to Dr Edelson for over 20 years now. He is a great dentist with a great staff. Melody & Tina always let me know ahead of time what my procedure will cost me. There are never any billing surprises here. I am notified via text and phone calls of upcoming appointments which I really appreciate. This office is clean, bright and and modern.
The equipment and the work performed in this office is truly state of the art. Today I had a crown repaired. Easy, painless and it feels great. Today Dental Assistants Porchia and Kristy assisted Dr Edelson both were excellent! Interesting I met them today but both of them have and the rest of the staff have been working for Dr Edelson for many years.
There is little turnover in this office which I believe speaks highly of how the office is run. The staff continually is trained and they are all up to date with the latest procedures They all know what they are doing. They are professional and they make you feel comfortable as a patient. I highly recommend Dr Edelson and this office

Had my first appointment today and I have to say everything was a breeze! From scheduling my appointment, to arriving and checking in-- and then my dental hygienist, Laurie was amazing! The staff was super friendly and educational. The doctor was nice as well, handshake to greet me and very thorough. Looks like I finally found my dentist!
