What is Periodontal Disease?

Periodontal disease (gum disease) is caused by plaque build-up and leads to bone loss and weak gum tissue. Gingivitis, or gum inflammation, can lead to periodontal disease if left untreated. By catching gingivitis in its early stages, you can prevent periodontal disease altogether.

Symptoms of Gum Disease

People that experience gum disease report bleeding and tender gums, gum discolouration and bad breath. If you suspect that you have gum disease, talk to a dentist. A professional can help identify the problem through a check-up or X-ray.

Stopping dental issues from developing further

Take a Proactive Approach

You can prevent gingivitis and gum disease with a dental hygiene routine, including teeth cleaning and flossing. For advanced cases, your dentist will personalise a treatment plan to restore your gums to a healthy, pink and comfortable condition.
