Gum Health
Your gums are the tissue that help to protect and support the teeth and underlying bone. Healthy gums look pink and firm, unhealthy gums are often red, puffy, and bleed easily. Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, is a progressive condition that can lead to an infection of the gums and bone surrounding your teeth. It is one of the top reasons for tooth loss in adults. Healthy gums aren’t just important for your oral health but also important for your overall health. There have been numerous studies showing an association between gum disease and other health conditions such as diabetes and heart disease.
