Gum Disease Can Risk Your Smile

When you think about your smile, what is the first thing that you envision? For most people, the focus is primarily on their teeth, but it is important to remember the pivotal role that your periodontal tissue plays in supporting your oral health. Your gums do a lot of the heavy lifting for your smile, and taking the time to care for them can make a big difference in your ability to keep yourself safe. Gum disease is routinely identified as the leading cause of tooth loss, so take your whole mouth’s health seriously.

With Dr. Kania, DDS, DMSc at Saxony Dental Arts Center in Encinitas, CA, you have the opportunity to renew your gumline with holistic periodontal treatment designed to help you keep an eye on both your health and your appearance. Maintaining close control over your oral hygiene is a big part of avoiding periodontal disease, and it is also an effective way to treat it once it has arrived. If you have started to notice that your gumline has shifted, talk to our team about your options to reclaim your gum health. Bleeding while brushing is a sign of bacterial infection, so don’t let it go on any longer!

Plaque And Tartar Buildup Can Irritate The Gums

Your oral health hygiene makes a difference in your ability to keep your smile safe, and we know that you are spending enough time twice each day on your toothbrushing. But many people struggle to follow through with their routine of daily flossing, and this can lead to serious problems for your dental wellness.

Just like on the surface of your enamel, plaque bacteria can form along your gumline and between your teeth. You need to remove this through a strict oral heath regimen, and that starts with flossing. If plaque buildup remains in your mouth, it can calcify to a harder material known as tartar, and at this point, you need the help of a trained dental professional to safely remove it.
