February is Gum Disease Awareness Month 🦷, a reminder of how important healthy gums are to your overall oral health. Gum disease often begins without noticeable pain or symptoms, making it easy to overlook. ⚠️ It develops when harmful bacteria accumulate around the teeth and below the gumline, causing inflammation, deep pockets, and eventual loss of the gum tissue and bone that support your teeth.
✨The good news is that gum disease is often preventable. Practicing good oral hygiene at home and maintaining a 6 month check up with your dentist are key to protecting your smile.
