Read MoreWhat Is Periodontal Disease?
Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, is a bacterial infection that affects the gums and supporting bone around the teeth. It often begins as gingivitis, which can cause redness, swelling, and bleeding gums. Without treatment, the condition can progress to periodontitis, leading to gum recession, bone loss, loose teeth, and even tooth loss.
Early detection and treatment are essential to preventing long-term damage and maintaining your oral health.
Common Signs of Gum Disease
Many people are unaware they have gum disease because symptoms can develop gradually. Regular dental examinations allow us to identify concerns before they become more serious.
Common symptoms may include:
- Red or swollen gums
- Bleeding while brushing or flossing
- Persistent bad breath
- Gum recession
- Loose teeth
- Sensitive teeth
- Pain when chewing
- Changes in your bite
If you notice any of these symptoms, scheduling an evaluation is important.
