Understanding Gum Disease: From Gingivitis to Advanced Periodontitis

September 1, 2025 malaika 0 comment

Gum disease is a common but preventable condition that can have serious implications for your oral and overall health. It progresses through three main stages:

Gingivitis: The earliest stage, characterized by inflamed, red, and bleeding gums. It’s often reversible with good oral hygiene.

Periodontitis: If left untreated, gingivitis can advance to periodontitis, where the infection spreads below the gum line, damaging the bone and tissues supporting your teeth.

Advanced Periodontitis: In its most severe form, periodontitis leads to significant bone and tissue loss, causing teeth to loosen or even fall out.

Don’t wait until it’s too late! Regular dental check-ups and professional cleanings are crucial for preventing and managing gum disease. Early detection is key to maintaining a healthy smile!
