What Does Gum Disease Actually Mean For My Mouth?

Are you unsure what terms like gingivitis or periodontitis mean? Gum disease refers to inflammation and loss of the supporting structures around the teeth, and it can affect everyday comfort, appearance and dental health.

Want a straightforward way to tell early from more established problems? Gingivitis may involve bleeding, redness or swelling, while periodontitis can involve gum pockets, recession, bone loss or loose teeth; knowing which applies helps shape care.

Which Signs Should Prompt A Professional Assessment?

Noticed bleeding when you brush or after eating? Bleeding with redness or swelling is a common reason to arrange an assessment so a dentist or hygienist can check the gums and supporting structures.

Bothered by persistent bad breath or an ongoing unpleasant taste? When breath or taste does not clear, a focused clinical check can help identify if care may be helpful.

Seen gum recession, felt a tooth becoming loose, or been told you have gum pockets? Any of these changes are appropriate reasons to book an assessment so the clinician can evaluate the extent of involvement and discuss options.
  • Bleeding or sore gums during daily cleaning
  • Ongoing bad breath or persistent taste
