How Do I know If I Have Gum Infection
The symptoms of Periodontal Disease (“gum disease”) or Periodontitis (previously called Chronic or Aggressive Periodontitis) include swollen, red or even bleeding gums, halitosis (bad breath), receding gums, loose teeth and gaps caused by the physical structures of the gums breaking down. Unfortunately, some of these symptoms actually occur painlessly which is why so many patients allow the disease to progress without investigation or treatment.
If your gums are bleeding, teeth feel wobbly or loose, halitosis / bad breath, gums and/or bone are shrinking, shrinking or receding gums and gaps forming between your teeth or have noticed your teeth moving position gradually or suddenly, then you should urgently seek our opinion and treatment.
Whether your front or back teeth, upper or lower teeth are affected, it important not to delay having a consultation and assesment so suitable treatment options can be presented to you.
