Treating And Curing Gum Disease

Simply Smiles Dental | Catching Treating And Curing Gum Disease | Dentist Toorak

Do you ever see traces of blood when you brush or floss? If you do, you could be seeing the early stages of gum disease, or gingivitis as it’s commonly known.

Luckily, if caught in the early stages, gum disease is reversible with a few changes to your oral care routine.

It’s important to make these changes as soon as you notice pain, swelling, or bleeding as – if allowed to develop – gum disease can affect the health of your entire body.

If gingivitis is allowed to flourish, it can morph into more serious gum disease, periodontitis, and then you’ll need to visit us at Simply Smiles Dental in order to cure it.
