A recent study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that more than 47 percent of American adults suffer with some stage of periodontal disease.* That is nearly half of the population. You might even have gum disease and not even know it yet.
Gum disease does not only threaten the loss of teeth and bone but studies have shown that untreated gum disease can increase your risk of other serious health conditions such as heart disease, stroke, and some forms of cancer.It is vital to seek treatment as soon as possible.

Contact our office today to receive your appointment.
There are three stages of gum (periodontal) disease: gingivitis, periodontitis and advanced periodontitis. The severity of gum disease can vary from person to person, depending on how long the infection has been present and if any forms of treatment have been performed. While it is important to visit a periodontist no matter the severity, seeking treatment as early as possible can help prevent permanent damage and restore your health.
Gum disease is a progressive bacterial infection that can not only lead to tooth loss, but can also increase your risk for heart disease, stroke, and some forms of cancer. With early diagnosis from a periodontist like Dr. Nancy Perez-Medina you can stop the progression of gum disease and prevent serious damage to your oral and overall health.
If you have been diagnosed with gum disease and are concerned about the pain and time traditionally required to treat it, you are not alone. We offer a gentle laser alternative to traditional osseous surgery that does not require any cutting or stitching of the gums. Laser gum surgery offers a virtually pain-free experience to eliminate harmful bacteria and restore your gums to optimal health.
If you've been told you do not have sufficient bone in your jaw, you may be a candidate for a bone grafting procedure. Bone loss can occur for a number of reasons, including tooth loss or gum disease. Gum disease breaks down the connection between the teeth and the gums, ultimately causing teeth to become loose.

I would give Dr. Nancy Perez-Medina ten stars if I could. If you are seeking periodontal care, she is the best. She is a highly skilled, attentive professional. She is up-to-date on the latest treatments and her years of experience have made her a master in care and technique. She has genuine concern for her patients’ needs, she listens and goes the extra mile to address questions or concerns. Her staff is just as talented and responsive and together they provide excellent care and results. If I ever move from this area, I will travel back to her practice for care. She also tells hilarious stories

Sometimes it can be very hard to find compassionate and caring doctors that take their time during your appointment to listen to your questions and concerns and perform quality work. I am so grateful and blessed that I found Dr. Perez-Medina because she is that kind of doctor. I have been seen by Dr. Perez-Medina since 2010. My dental health has greatly improved and I am very happy with all of the work she has performed. I have had two extensive procedures done and after each procedure she called me to check to see how I was doing. Such a personal touch! The atmosphere in the office is bright and

I have been in the dental field for many years now and I understand what it means to give patients the best customer service and care possible, so when I found out I needed to have a tissue graft I expected nothing less. I saw Dr. Perez-Medina and I couldn’t believe how they exceeded my expectations! Her staff is super friendly and very helpful!! Dr. Perez-Medina is very knowledgeable and explained the procedure to me In great detail. She answered all of my questions and really made me feel at ease because as hard as it is to admit this, I was extremely scared. On the day of my procedure, once

Dr. Perez and her staff are among the most professional, delightful and caring medical care providers I have ever experienced. From my first consult to my perio procedure, my experience has been one of warm confidence in Dr Nancy and her staff and a peaceful assurance that all would be well. I was amazed at the practically pain free experience of my surgery and recovery and the results that after a month, leave my gums appearing like they did when I was in my thirties. I cannot more strongly endorse Dr. Perez and her practice.
Update: after a second procedure, I strongly affirm my initial recommendation

Dr. Perez-Medina is a wonderful doctor! Our story began when my daughter was in braces and it was discovered that the gab between her bottom teeth was caused by excess tissue. It was recommended that she have it removed before her braces came off. We went to a doctor recommended by our dentist and on our dental plan. A few years later our dentist noticed that the tissue was beginning to grow back! We contacted Dr. Perez-Medina; she explained the procedure that she would use and how the chances of this happening again were very very slim. She was very straightforward in her approach, yet compassionate
