Your gums are designed to keep the blood in and the bacteria out. If your gums bleed then the bacteria can get into your body and disease will surely develop. The latest research shows that plaque (which builds up on the surface of your teeth) and bacteria are the cause of gum disease, when your immune level is low.
Your HYGIENIST is trained to monitor the condition of your gums and together we will teach you how to keep your own gums bacteria free. There is no place for bleeding gums. This is a warning signal – do not overlook it.
