Gum Disease FAQs
What is gum disease?
Gum disease (also called periodontal disease) is the leading cause of preventable tooth loss in adults. It occurs when bacterial buildup along the gum line damages the teeth and gums, eventually causing bone loss if untreated.
What are the common signs of gum disease?
- Red, inflamed, bleeding, or swollen gums
- Gum recession (teeth that appear longer than normal)
- Black triangles between teeth
- Loose or mobile teeth
How does gum disease affect your health?
Gum disease has been linked to systemic health conditions like diabetes, strokes, heart disease, and low birth weight in pregnant women. It also lowers your body’s defenses against infections and may contribute to respiratory issues.
How can you prevent gum disease?
- Brush and floss daily
- Replace your toothbrush every 3-4 months
- Avoid smoking, vaping, and tobacco
- Visit your dentist for regular cleanings and exams
