Your smile is about more than just your teeth. While we know that they are the stars of the show, they need some help from the supporting cast, and it is hard to talk about them without bringing up your gums. Periodontal tissue provides serious support for your smile, so it is important to make sure that you are taking all the necessary steps to keep them safe. Your gum health makes a big difference in your ability to keep your teeth safe as you age, so when you start to see a change, it is time to talk to your dentist.
Here at Sunny Smiles, we know the value of prevention; we also understand that when common oral health concerns start to occur, it is vital to step in and do something quickly. When you notice a change in your gumline, including redness, swelling, or recession, you want to call your dentist to talk about ways of improving the health of your gums. Bleeding when you brush is another serious sign to call your oral health team, so if you have started to see something, say something to your provider.
