symptoms of gingivitis and periodontitis for early
detection and prevention.
1) Red and Puffy Gums
A common warning sign of gum disease
that should not be ignored.

Gums should never bleed, even when
you brush vigorously or use dental floss.
3) Persistent Bad Breath
Bacteria buildup and infection can lead
to chronic bad breath.

As gum disease progresses, the gums
can start to pull away from the teeth.

irritate the gums and teeth.
