Do your gums bleed while brushing or flossing?
Many people assume it’s normal, but bleeding gums are often an early sign of gum disease. It usually happens because of plaque buildup along the gumline, early-stage gingivitis, inconsistent flossing, or inflammation caused by bacteria.
The good news is that in its early stage, gum disease can be completely reversed with professional cleaning and proper oral care at home.
If left untreated, it may lead to gum recession, bone loss, and even loose teeth over time.
At Pristine Dental and Orthodontics, we focus on prevention and early treatment to help you maintain a healthy smile for years to come.
If you notice bleeding gums, don’t ignore it. Schedule a dental check-up and take the first step toward healthier gums today.
