Diagnosis and treatment of gum disease to protect your teeth, gums, and overall health.
Gum disease is an inflammation of the soft tissues that hold your teeth in place, usually caused by plaque from inadequate brushing and flossing. Its early stage is gingivitis; advanced stages are called periodontitis, which can lead to bleeding gums, discomfort, and tooth loss.
Causes and risk factors
- Poor oral hygiene and plaque that hardens into tartar.
- Smoking or chewing tobacco.
- Crooked teeth that are hard to clean.
- Genetics, pregnancy, diabetes, and certain medications.
Symptoms to watch for
- Red or swollen gums.
- Bleeding or tender gums.
- Persistent bad breath.
- Painful chewing, sensitive teeth, or receding gums.
