Generally a patient would need gum therapy due to incidence of gum disease, also known as periodontal disease. This is a common issue among many people which occurs when the gums become infected and inflamed, leading to pain, bleeding, and eventually tooth loss if left untreated.
There are many reasons why someone may need gum therapy, but some of the most common causes include:
Neglecting to brush and floss daily can lead to a buildup of plaque and tartar, which can cause gum disease.
Some people may be more susceptible to gum disease due to genetics.
Smoking can decrease blood flow to the gums, making it harder for them to fight off infection.
Having gum therapy done is important for several reasons, including:
Gum disease can lead to tooth loss if left untreated, so gum therapy can help prevent this from happening.
Gum disease has been linked to several serious health issues, such as heart disease and stroke, so treating it can improve overall health.
People with gum disease may be self-conscious about their appearance, so gum therapy can help improve their confidence.
Gum therapy helps control infection, reduce swelling, and ease tenderness in the gums. By targeting the source of inflammation, it can significantly improve comfort and make everyday activities like eating and brushing much easier.
Gums (also called Gingiva) play an important roll in your oral and overall health. Maintaining healthy gums are critical to prevent tooth loss, improve overall health and maintain a confident smile.
