What Is Gum Disease And Can It Affect You?

General Dentistry, General Info, Patient Information

When you visit our office for a routine hygiene examination and cleaning, we do more than just clean your teeth and check for signs of decay. We also look for other common issues, such as oral cancer and gum disease. Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a serious gum infection caused by bacterial growth along the gumline and around the base of the tooth. When gum disease is left untreated, it will continue to progress and can cause serious complications such as tooth loss and deterioration of the jawbone.

Are You Lucky Enough To Work With Your Family? Dr. Woodall Is!

Dr. Woodall, General Info, Our Team

As a parent, it’s a selfish goal to be able to see your children excel in their selected career paths. As a dentist, I am extremely proud that my daughters have strived and achieved their goals as award-winning dental hygienists. It’s not every day that a father gets the opportunity to work with his daughters, but I am blessed that this organically happened to me. If you are unfamiliar, Heather and Haley are my daughters, and they earned their positions as dental hygienists due to their strong work ethic, not because I am their father. It was never my intention to give my daughters a job in this practice just because they were my children. Read on to learn more about how my daughters came to join me in this practice and why you are lucky to have them as your dental hygienists.
