Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, develops when plaque and bacteria accumulate in the mouth and aren’t treated early. This buildup can lead to inflammation and infection in the gums. In addition to poor oral hygiene, factors such as smoking, chewing tobacco, teeth grinding, certain medications, and genetics can also contribute to the onset of periodontal disease. In advanced stages, it can result in permanent damage, including bone deterioration and tooth loss.

Dr. Scott Dahlquist recommends daily brushing and flossing, along with routine dental checkups every six months, as the most effective ways to prevent gum disease. Common symptoms to watch for include:

  • Abscessed teeth

  • Severe tooth sensitivity

  • Persistent bad breath

  • Loose or missing teeth

  • Red, swollen, or bleeding gums

  • Receding gums

If you’re experiencing any of these signs, don’t wait contact us right away. Call Ocean Dental at 805-323-9740 or email us to schedule a consultation. Your oral health is our top priority.
