Mr. Lawrence E. Goettisheim DDS's Expert Contributions
I keep getting ulcers in my gums. Is it the food or something else?
It could be diet, it could be overly aggressive brushing, it could be the ingredients in your toothpaste or could be signs of a systemic condition. You need to see a periodontist to make a diagnosis whether it is me or another qualified practitioner. READ MORE
Can a tooth cleaning procedure cause inflammation?
Go back to the office you had the cleaning at and have them examine your mouth/gums and explain your situation. READ MORE
My stitches done for gum grafting have become loose. What can I do?
It is odd for you to have sutures for 6 months. I would call the dentist who did the graft and see what their advice is. READ MORE
