Your gums are one of the most important parts of your mouth, protecting your teeth and jawbone so your teeth stay securely in place.  

Taking the time to properly take care of your gums results in a healthy mouth and overall good health.  Bad breath, tooth decay, broken and missing teeth, tooth sensitivity and oral cancer are just a few of the issues that can stem from a lack of good oral health.

The most common mouth issue is Gum Disease! 

Gum Disease is an infection that leads to gum inflammation and loose teeth. If this infection persists it can lead to periodontitis and eventual tooth loss.

Daily care of your gums and teeth can help prevent gingivitis and periodontitis.  Seeing your Dentist twice and year as well as brushing and flossing daily can reduce the amount of plaque and tartar that collect on your teeth.  

Gum Disease is nothing to deal with.  If left untreated it can lead to additional problems concerning your teeth, jaws and overall oral health.
