Do you suffer from bleeding and painful gums when brushing? A bad taste in the mouth or bad breath? You probably suffer from a mild or advanced infection in your gum. In the early stages, this is known as gingivitis. As there usually is little to no symptoms in the beginning it is often recognised late. The dentist will perform a PPS score (Periodic Periodontal Screening) during a periodic check-up to see whether you have early stage or advanced gingivitis and then you will likely be referred to a dental hygienist.
If gingivitis is not treated, the deeper jawbone can become affected and break down from the inside, resulting in your teeth becoming loose. We call this periodontitis. With targeted treatment, a dental hygienist can provide a thorough dental cleaning, removing deposits, plaque and tartar. In this way, you can cure problems in your teeth but more importantly, prevent them!
