Some Facts to Remember
Gum disease often starts with plaque buildup along the gumline. If left untreated, it can progress to more severe stages, leading to gum recession, tooth mobility, and eventually tooth loss. Regular dental check-ups and maintaining a good oral hygiene routine are key to preventing gum disease.
Treatment for gum disease may include deep cleaning procedures like scaling and root planing, which remove plaque and tartar buildup below the gumline, or more advanced surgeries if the disease is severe. Early intervention is always the best option!

What Causes Gum Disease?
Gum disease is primarily caused by poor oral hygiene that allows plaque to form on teeth, which leads to inflammation of the gums. Other factors such as smoking, certain medications, and hormonal changes can also contribute to gum disease.
How Can I Prevent Gum Disease?
Maintaining a good oral hygiene routine is the best way to prevent gum disease. Brush your teeth twice a day, floss daily, and visit your dentist regularly for check-ups and professional cleanings. Avoid smoking and eat a balanced diet to keep your gums healthy.
What Are the Signs of Gum Disease?
Early signs of gum disease include red, swollen gums that may bleed when brushing or flossing. If left untreated, symptoms may progress to gum recession, bad breath, and tooth mobility. If you notice these symptoms, it’s essential to see a dentist as soon as possible.
Can Gum Disease Be Reversed?
In the early stages of gum disease, known as gingivitis, the condition can be reversed with proper treatment and improved oral hygiene. However, in advanced stages of gum disease (periodontitis), the damage to the gums and bone structure may be irreversible, though treatment can help stop its progression and improve overall health.
