Understanding Periodontal Disease
Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, is a common but serious condition that affects the gums and supporting structures of the teeth. It typically begins with gingivitis, characterized by red, swollen gums that may bleed when brushing or flossing. If left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, which can lead to gum recession, bone loss, and eventually, tooth loss.
Signs and Symptoms of Gum Disease
Red, swollen, or tender gums
Bleeding while brushing or flossing
Persistent bad breath
Receding gums or longer-looking teeth
Loose or shifting teeth
Pus between the teeth and gums
