What Is Gum Disease?
Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, begins when plaque and tartar build up on the teeth, irritating the gums. In their healthy state, gums are firm, pink, and do not bleed during brushing or flossing. If you notice tenderness, swelling, or bleeding, these could be early signs of gum disease.
The toxins released by plaque can lead to inflammation, causing the gums to bleed, become red, and lose their attachment to the teeth. If left untreated, this can progress to more severe stages like gingivitis or periodontitis, potentially causing tooth loss and damage to the bone.
