Common Warning Signs
Bleeding while brushing, swollen gums, bad breath, loose teeth, or gum recession should be checked early. Gum disease is easier to control before it damages the supporting bone.
Why Gum Health Affects Overall Health
Inflammation in the gums may be associated with diabetes control, heart health, and pregnancy outcomes. Professional cleaning and home care reduce bacterial load.
Treatment Options
Treatment can include scaling, root surface cleaning, medication, and maintenance visits. Your dentist will recommend a schedule based on severity.
