Gum Disease
Thursday, August 13th, 2009Q: I was at the dentist last week and was shocked to discover I have gum disease! Is there anything I can do to help this?
A: Gingivitis or gum disease occurs where pockets of bacteria accumulate and produce more plaque, separating the gums from the teeth. The Bacterial growth causes the gums to become red, soft and shiny.
