Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease starts when plaque and bacteria build up around the teeth and gums. In its early stage (gingivitis), you may notice redness, swelling, or bleeding while brushing. If not treated, it can progress to periodontitis, leading to gum recession, loose teeth, and bone loss.
Symptoms You May Have Gum Disease
Bleeding gums while brushing or flossing
Persistent bad breath
Red, swollen, or tender gums
Receding gums or longer-looking teeth
Loose teeth or changes in bite
If you notice any of these symptoms, early intervention can save your teeth and improve your oral health.
