🩸 Do your gums bleed when you brush or floss?
Bleeding gums shouldn't simply be ignored.
It can be a sign of gum inflammation, commonly associated with plaque buildup and gingivitis. If left untreated, gum disease can potentially progress and affect the tissues and bone supporting your teeth.
Other signs to look out for include:
🩸 Bleeding when brushing or flossing
🔴 Red or swollen gums
😮💨 Persistent bad breath
🦷 Gum recession
↔️ Changes in how your teeth fit together
🦷 Loose or sensitive teeth
The good news? Early gum disease can often be managed effectively with professional care and improved oral hygiene.
Don't wait for your gums to become painful before getting them checked.
