Our incisive look at proper dental care, and how we work to improve your smile.

Dr. Morton offers dental implants to replace teeth, and periodontal-related cosmetic dentistry to improve smiles! Our office also treats the dental aspects of facial pain, breath odor, snoring, sleep apnea and oral lesions.

But good dental health may do more than simply improve your quality of life. Periodontal medicine is a topic seen recently in the newspapers, on television and in medical and dental journals.

Significant evidence linking chronic and acute gum disease to problems and conditions such as heart attack, stroke, low birth weight and premature babies, and kidney, lung and diabetic infections is leading to additional insights. In some groups of patients, the risk of death is also increased.
