Many people don\u2019t recognize the warning signs, bleeding and swollen gums, as a precursor to gum disease. This month, a national campaign is under way to raise awareness about gum health and periodontal disease, and we wanted to help do our part to spread the word!<\/p>\n<p>the doctor will tell you early recognition and action are the most important steps to health gums, and ultimately a health body, too! Studies are published every year linking oral health, including the gums, to the health of other areas of the body, such as your heart. One of the most important steps to improving the care of your gums is recognizing the warning signs for gum disease. These can include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Gums that appear red or swollen<\/li>\n<li>Gums that feel tender<\/li>\n<li>Gums that bleed easily (during brushing or flossing)<\/li>\n<li>Gums that recede or pull away from the teeth<\/li>\n<li>Persistent halitosis, or bad breath<\/li>\n<li>Loose teeth<\/li>\n<li>Any change in the way teeth come together in the biting position<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you happen to notice any of these signs with you or your child, please schedule an appointment at our convenient Boise, Idaho office as soon as possible. the doctor and our team can take proactive steps to prevent gingivitis and gum disease, while showing you how to improve gum care in your or your child\u2019s daily oral hygiene habits.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>September is National Gum Care Month!
