What Is Gum Disease?
Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is an infection of the gums caused by plaque buildup around the teeth. If plaque is not removed through proper oral hygiene and professional dental cleaning, it can harden into tartar and irritate the gums.
In its early stage, gum disease is known as gingivitis, which can cause redness, swelling, and bleeding gums. If left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, a more serious condition that may damage the bone supporting your teeth.
Regular dental check-ups and hygiene treatments can help detect and treat gum disease early.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the early signs of gum disease?
Early signs of gum disease include bleeding gums when brushing or flossing, red or swollen gums, bad breath, and gum tenderness. If you notice these symptoms, it is important to book a dental check-up as early treatment can prevent the condition from worsening.
Can gum disease be reversed?
Yes, early-stage gum disease (gingivitis) can often be reversed with professional dental cleaning and improved oral hygiene. More advanced gum disease may require specialised periodontal treatment.
How is gum disease treated by a dentist?
Treatment usually begins with professional cleaning to remove plaque and tartar buildup. In more advanced cases, deep cleaning or periodontal therapy may be recommended to treat infection below the gum line.
