Gum Health And Stain Removal

The key to keeping your teeth for a lifetime is maintaining your dental health and ensuring your teeth and gums are clean and healthy. A clean smile is generally a healthy smile.

Many people are at risk of developing dental problems such as gum disease, tooth decay, and even mouth cancer. You can significantly reduce this risk by following an excellent oral hygiene routine, incorporating treatments like Airflow polishing, and attending regular hygienist appointments.

Gum Disease

Gum disease is a common condition among adults where the gums become swollen and sore. It occurs when bacteria from unremoved plaque and tartar start to irritate the gums.

There are two types of gum disease: gingivitis and periodontitis. Gingivitis is the early stage and can be reversed with a good oral hygiene routine and regular scale and polish treatments when seeing your dental hygienist. However, if left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, a more serious condition that can be managed to prevent further deterioration.

The effects of gum disease include bleeding gums, receding gums, and even tooth loss. Regular scale and polish treatments are essential in preventing and managing these issues.
