What is Gum Disease?

Gum disease is a progressive infection of the gums caused by plaque and bacteria buildup. It is categorised into two main stages:

1. Gingivitis (Early Stage Gum Disease)

🔹 Symptoms: Red, swollen gums that may bleed when brushing or flossing.
🔹 Causes: Poor oral hygiene, plaque accumulation, smoking, and diet.
🔹 Treatment: Regular dental cleanings and improved home care can reverse gingivitis.

2. Periodontitis (Advanced Gum Disease)

🔹 Symptoms: Receding gums, persistent bad breath, loose teeth, and painful chewing.
🔹 Causes: Untreated gingivitis leading to deep bacterial infections.
🔹 Treatment: Requires specialized deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), gum therapy, or surgical intervention in severe cases.

How to Prevent Gum Disease – Expert Tips from Beam Dental Clinic

✔ Floss Daily – Removes plaque and debris between teeth.
✔ Use Antibacterial Mouthwash – Helps kill harmful bacteria.
✔ Visit Your Dentist Regularly – Schedule dental check-ups and cleanings every 6 months.
