Bleeding & Unhealthy Gums
Kremer Dental Care - Gum Treatment - Yuba City, California
Do your gums bleed when you floss?
Do you not floss frequently?
Do you have a bad taste or odor in your mouth?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, this is cause for concern.
Gum Disease is the process where bacteria colonies or plaque are a constant irritant to the gums. If the plaque is not cleaned off adequately, the gums will bleed due to the irritation. After continued irritation, the bone will start to recede below the gums, and deep pockets will develop.
This is a major concern because:
- Poor gum health has been linked to poor overall health, and heart disease.
- 70-80% of the adult population has some form of gum disease.
Our skilled in-office Soft Tissue Therapists are experts in dealing with the many Gum Disease problems. We have a modern soft tissue Laser to clean out gum pockets, kill the bacteria that cause the disease, and stimulate your own body’s healing effects.
