Periodontal (gum) disease is a progressive condition that often begins with few noticeable symptoms. It starts as gingivitis and can worsen if not treated.
Common symptoms of advanced periodontal disease include:
- Persistent bad breath
- Gum recession
- Sensitivity to acidic foods
- Gum abscesses
- Tooth pain
- Loose teeth or tooth loss
Early detection and treatment are key to protecting your oral health.
