Gum Disease

What is gum disease?

Gum disease is a silent condition that can affect the tissues around your gums.

What causes gum disease?

Gum disease is mostly caused by the buildup of plaque around teeth that aren’t cleaned properly. 

Other things that can put you at risk of developing gum disease are smoking, having a weaker immune system, or having diabetes.

What are the symptoms of gum disease?

  • Bleeding gums
  • Bad breath
  • Loose teeth
  • Gum recession

What are the treatments for gum disease?

Maintaining good dental hygiene at all times is a must. Booking an appointment with a hygienist for regular hygiene treatments will assist in the removal of plaque buildup. Make sure to visit your dentist for regular checkups.
