3 Most Common Gum Problems

Until recently the only periodontal therapy available was deep cleanings and in more advanced cases, surgery. More recently, antibiotics were added to kill the bacteria. Such treatment made a lasting impression on those who went through it. However, the periodontal disease often came back again, creating the belief that the disease can never be “cured.” The good news is that with the advance of LASER Gum Treatment, and our understanding of the disease, laser periodontal/Gum treatment can be accomplished painlessly, quickly, and with your cooperation, can be kept in remission.

Gums make up the mouth because without them our teeth wouldn’t have any support and would then fall right out. When we have gum problems it can lead to tooth decay, loss of teeth, and can even develop into more dire medical conditions. In most cases, the main reason people have gum problems in Sydney have to do with poor oral hygiene. Plaque builds up over time and eventually damages the gums. The three most common problems that result from this includes gum disease, bleeding gums, and receding gums.

1. Gum Disease Statistics show that over twenty percent of middle-aged adults suffer from chronic gum disease and over fifty percent have some form of it. The main causes of gum disease are lack of brushing, a bad diet, and smoking. Brushing and flossing are extremely important and if done right then it can prevent gum infection from developing. A poor diet that doesn’t include enough essential vitamins, such as Vitamin D and Calcium, will weaken and break down the gums. Smoking is not only bad for your health in-general, but can increase plaque and bacteria production as well as causes swollen gums. Swollen, bleeding, receding, and sore gums are all signs that you may have gum disease, so visit us at Smile Concepts today if you have any of these symptoms.

2. Bleeding Gums Gingivitis is the leading cause of bleeding gums. This usually occurs due to the swelling caused by the bacteria infecting the gums. This plaque eventually causes infected gums and the possibility of bleeding which can lead to even more problems, like calculus, if not treated immediately, bleeding gums will also cause weakness and decay, which would then result in loose teeth with a high possibility of them falling out.

3. Receding Gums Receding gums is a condition where the gum tissue surrounding the teeth tears away from the root. This occurs when the gums are severely irritated due to plaque accumulation. If treatment is prolonged, eventually the gums will wear away until the teeth are completely exposed. Besides gum disease, brushing the gums too intensely can also causes the gums to recede.
