You May Have Gingivitis

Categories: Oral Health

Fresno Dentistry Every person’s mouth provides a cozy home for over 600 types of bacteria. If you are dedicated to oral hygiene and have healthy gums, these microbes usually don’t influence your health. However, if you have gum disease, bacteria can enter your bloodstream through your gums and cause troubles.

The first sign of gingivitis is swollen, sore gums.

Gingivitis is the term for Stage 1 gum disease. At Mirelez Wellness Dental, we routinely discover gingivitis in patients who are not even aware that they have the condition.

It is important for people to understand that it is not normal for gums to bleed when they are brushed or flossed. Sore, swollen, or bleeding gums are a tip off that something is out of order.

If you haven’t had an oral examination in a while and live in the Clovis area, call Mirelez Wellness Dental at 559-435-3113.

Dr. Mirelez will perform an intensive examination of your teeth and gums and take time to discuss the results and recommendations with you.
