Gum disease (periodontal disease) is a common issue and a leading cause of tooth loss. Signs include inflamed gums, bleeding, sensitivity, receding gums, pain, tooth loss, drifting teeth, and spacing between teeth.
Periodontal disease can be triggered by factors such as stress, poor oral hygiene, uncontrolled diabetes, clenching and grinding (bruxism), and certain medications.
Fortunately, with the help of our skilled therapist team, it is both preventable and controllable.
Regular hygiene appointments at Sale Dental are essential to minimise plaque and prevent gum disease. Our team is dedicated to helping you maintain optimal oral health. We will provide personalised advice on daily habits to keep your gum health at its best.
