Yuly Gertsberg Oral Surgery P.C.

"An impacted #wisdomtooth can damage neighboring teeth or become infected. Because it's in an area that’s hard to clean, it can also invite bacteria that lead to gum disease. Oral bacteria can also travel through your bloodstream and lead to infections and illnesses that affect your heart, kidneys and other organs." If an impacted wisdom tooth is suspected, you can make an appointment at our office to discuss appropriate treatment options right for you. Please call 718-998-2929. #OralSurgeon #BrooklynOralSurgeon #DrYulyGertsberg

The United States spends more than $64 billion each year on oral health care, out of which only 4 percent is paid for by government programs."
