Getting Rid of Gingivitis
Gingivitis is the early form of gum disease and if it remains untreated it can progress to moderate to severe gum disease (periodontitis), which can result in tooth loss.
In summary:
– It is important to treat gingivitis as soon as possible, to prevent more serious complications occurring.
– Common signs of gingivitis include bleeding, tender, or receding gums, bad breath or tooth pain.
– Gingivitis can be prevented or treated with good dental hygiene to keep teeth clean and regular visits to your dentist.
“A dentist can do a professional dental cleaning consisting of scaling and root planting.”
