Prevent Periodontal Problems With Better Oral Hygiene

Are you doing a good job of protecting yourself against a periodontal infection? When you understand the problems that are associated with gum disease, particularly advanced disease, you can understand why this is an important question! A person with untreated periodontal disease can have a harder time managing their health, and they are more likely to lose teeth over time. Our Encinitas/San Diego, CA periodontal practice is prepared to help you manage your condition if you are struggling with gum disease. With that said, we are also prepared to guide you through smarter preventive care, so you can keep your gums in great shape!

Protecting Your Gums With Better Brushing And Flossing

Simply put, if you want to fight gum disease more effectively, you need to do the best possible job addressing the buildup of oral bacteria on your smile. While oral bacteria are certainly a problem when it comes to tooth decay, they also cause the infections that can lead to periodontal issues. Changing your approach to dental hygiene may be advisable if you have struggled with issues like gingivitis in the past. If you are not dong so already, make a real effort to clean your teeth at your gum line when brushing and flossing, as this is an area where bacteria can gather, and eventually migrate below your gum line!
