What really got me interested in taking better care of my teeth was an article I read about the connection between gum disease and heart disease. As a result of Dr. Hall’s care I feel my risk of heart disease is a lot lower.

"Everyone in Dr. Hall’s practice is great. They seem very concerned about your health and they take the time to get to know you."

“My gums were in bad shape after a lot of years of smoking.”



Oral surgery includes a wide range of dental treatment beyond dental implants and cosmetic dentistry. Gum disease is widespread, often related to smoking and other health risks. Here’s Christopher’s story about his experience with oral surgery by Dr. John Hall.

“I’ve basically got good teeth but my gums were in bad shape after a lot of years of smoking. I stopped smoking four years ago but my gums were really sensitive, they were sore and they would bleed if I brushed too hard. I was even starting to lose some of the bone structure that supports your teeth. Dr. Hall and his staff have improved my gums dramatically. I definitely feel better after the oral surgery.

"He’s very concerned about your well-being. He even calls to follow up and see how you’re doing."

Thanks to their diligence in cleaning my teeth I don’t have to worry any more about what I’m eating and I don’t have the sensitivity to hot and cold that I had before. What really got me interested in taking better care of my teeth was an article I read about the connection between gum disease and heart disease. As a result of Dr. Hall’s care I feel my risk of heart disease is a lot lower. Everyone in Dr. Hall’s practice is great. They seem very concerned about your health and they take the time to get to know you. It seems like a big family, which is a real tribute to the whole practice. Dr. Hall seems like a great guy. He’s very concerned about your well-being. He even calls to follow up and see how you’re doing.”
