🦷 Is your smile at risk? Learn about 𝗚𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘀❗

Gingivitis is the 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗹𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 of the gum tissue, often caused by the build-up of bacterial 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗾𝘂𝗲 on tooth surfaces. While it might seem like a minor issue, if left untreated, gingivitis can progress to 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗱𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘀, a more severe condition that can lead to gum and bone damage, and even 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘀. Fortunately, gingivitis is reversible with good 𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝘆𝗴𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗲❗

Symptoms of gingivitis include red, swollen, or tender gums, bleeding during brushing or 𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴, and persistent bad breath. If you notice any of these signs, it’s important to take action❗ Regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleanings can prevent gingivitis from worsening.

But that's not all — studies suggest a link between gingivitis and more serious health conditions like Alzheimer's disease and low birth weight in infants. Taking care of your gums isn’t just about a healthy smile 😁, it’s about protecting your overall well-being.
