Bleeding gums? Bad breath? Receding gums? Wobbly or drifting teeth?

Gum disease, also known as “Periodontal Disease” is an infection of the gums caused by bacteria. It manifests itself in the early stages as Gingivitis (inflammation of the gums). When untreated, gingivitis progresses gradually into periodontal disease causing surrounding supporting structures around the teeth to destroy and damage.

Smiles Plus Dental Rouse Hill dentists are well trained in detecting and treating gum disease. We believe that strong healthy gums are the key foundation to good oral and overall health. Do you know scientific research links gum disease to many chronic health conditions such as heart diseases, diabetes, cancer, stroke and premature births? 

Our commitment to early detection and prevention fostered with practicing good oral hygiene and regular dentist visits with scale and clean can greatly reduce the risk of gum disease. We also offer deep cleaning (root planning) for more advance stages of gum disease.

If you have any signs or symptoms of gum disease, contact Smiles Plus Dental Rouse Hill or make an appointment today to discuss.
