Keeping Your Gums Healthy For Healthier Teeth

Maintaining a healthy smile is not just about keeping the teeth healthy but it is also about keeping the gums healthy too. The gums protect the teeth. Keeping your gums healthy prevents tooth loss. Gum Disease, also known as Periodontal Disease is one of the leading causes of tooth loss in adults today.

So, what causes Periodontal Disease?
Plaque build-up on your teeth is the number one cause of periodontal disease. At its most basic level, Periodontal Disease is an infection of the gum tissue. The sulcus or the space between the gum and the teeth is a breeding ground for bacteria. If this is infected, the gums can recede and, over time, can cause tooth loss.

If you are experiencing bleeding gums while brushing your teeth or flossing, pain while chewing, have swollen gums, build up of tartar, your teeth are sensitive to hot and cold, changes in bite, bad breath or have gums that that have withdrawn from the teeth, then you may be suffering from Periodontal Disease.
