The Importance of Regular Oral Evaluations

The periodontal (gum) evaluation is a critical step in the dental health exam. Healthy gums are light pink and hug tightly around your teeth; swelling, bleeding or pain indicate that you have gum disease! We take measurements of pocket depths between each tooth/fiber system to determine if there's pockets capable enough for bacteria growth which can lead towards oral complications such as heart issues."

Significant Hormone Changes or Pregnancy

The toothaches and bleeding gums that come with major hormone fluctuations, such as pregnancy or menopause, and can be a frustrating experience. However, it's important not to avoid the dentist if you have these symptoms because they could contribute towards gum disease later in life or when parenting children!

Medications & Treatment Side Effects

If you are taking medications or have recently received cancer treatment, it is important to be aware of the risks for dry mouth. This condition can lead your dentist suggesting products that help prevent gum disease and keep oral health in check with regular dental checkups at an early age!
