Take Control Of Your Gum Health

Beautiful and healthy teeth are just part the equation when it comes to your oral health. Too many people overlook the health and importance of their gums. Your gums provide stability and support for your teeth and act as a protective seal between your teeth and jaw bone.

Unfortunately, the foods we eat and drink, our genetics, and our brushing habits can all contribute to bacterial growth on our teeth and gums. As these bacteria grow and multiply, the result can be painful and dangerous infections in your gum tissue, commonly called periodontitis or gingivitis.

Do you suffer from these common symptoms of gum disease:

• Bleeding gums after brushing or flossing
• Gums that are sore, tender, or swollen
• Chronic bad breath or dry mouth
• Sensitive teeth or pain when chewing
