Morden Dentist Advises About Bleeding Gums

Blood at the best of times, generally indicates a problem, repetitive blood from your gums, definitely means you have problem, and as long as you’re not brushing your teeth too heavily, then it indicates you may have gum disease. Its a problem that many of us in Morden will probably suffer from at some point, our general diet of starchy and sugary based foods and drinks, certainly wont be helping. But like most problems associated with the mouth, bleeding gums and gum disease, or gingivitis, can have a knock-on affect throughout the rest of the mouth and body. Most of these problems are caused by poor oral hygiene and diet. It’s the build up of several factors that starts with plaque, which can lead to gum disease, then to periodontal disease- then your teeth can drop out, and if you think thats bad, gum disease has be identified to have a strong bearing on heart and diabetic issues. At the first sign of bleeding gums, you must counter it with a two pronged defence, starting with your dentist, to find out the extent of how bad your gums are. It might even involve some treatment and whilst you’re there, you should talk about the best way of looking after your gums because there are a range of products out on the market that will help. But the biggest thing you should look closely at is your life style and maybe alter it, for your health and your gums.
