We make sure that it’s cleaned up. We have three hygienists here that helps us do that. We also have a specialist, a periodontist that helps take care of top-of-the-line equipment that can help kill the bacteria and help the gum flourish. And we also can give you a recommendation on your home care to help you keep the gum in a healthy condition.
