3 Reasons To Avoid Gum Disease

Gum Disease Treatment 3 | Dores Dental - East Longmeadow, MA

Your gums are important to your oral and overall health. We hope you are doing everything you can to prevent gum infections, including regular checkups at our East Longmeadow, MA office. We can treat periodontal disease at our office, but come up with multiple reasons you should

1. Prevent Bad Breath

In the early stages of gum disease, your gums can look redder than usual or appear swollen. They also may bleed when you brush or floss. If you ignore this situation, the bacteria that cause gum infections can build up and affect your breath in a bad way.

2. Stop Tooth Infections

Gum infections often develop as a result of tartar buildup. This can lead to gum recession, which allows harmful bacteria to attack your tooth at the root. For this reason, periodontal disease can and does lead to painful tooth infections, which require root canals to repair.

3. Protect Your Smile

Many people underestimate the importance of gum health. This may be why gum disease is the leading cause of tooth loss in the United States.

Protect your gums by brushing, flossing, and visiting our  East Longmeadow, MA office. Call the Dores Dental team at 413-241-3995 to find out more or fill out our online form to request your future appointment.
