Bleeding gums can be a sign of gum disease, which has been linked to diabetic complications, cardiac conditions, low birth weight and other health problems. Gum disease is also the leading cause of tooth loss for American adults. Every patient should have a periodontal health evaluation at least twice a year. During your periodontal exam, our hygienist and dentists will measure your gums, check the condition of your jawbone and search for signs of gum disease. We will let you know if problems exist, help resolve the problems and show you how to effectively prevent disease.
