Quick question, and be honest: do your gums bleed when you brush or floss?
If the answer is yes, Maria, one of our dental hygienists at Serenity Smile Designs, wants you to know that's not something to brush off. Bleeding gums are the first sign of gum disease β and at that stage, it's completely reversible. But left alone, it progresses into something that's a lot harder to manage and can eventually cost you teeth.
She walks through exactly what to watch for and why coming in sooner rather than later makes all the difference. Gum disease is the number one cause of tooth loss in adults β and most people don't know they have it until it's already advanced.
