When gums become tender and inflamed, they can cause a massive amount of discomfort to the patient. At Fresh Meadows Dental Care, Dr. Farid Hakimzadeh can teach you the proper tools and techniques to treat your gums with care and give them the attention that they need and deserve. Depending on the severity of your gum inflammation, you may be suffering from a form of periodontal disease.
Healthy gums are firm and a pale pink, if yours are any other color, you may be suffering from periodontal disease. To avoid periodontal disease, it’s best to visit Dr. Hakimzadeh twice a year for professional cleanings, to maintain optimal oral health. After all, your gums need just as much attention, if not more, than your tooth enamel. If periodontal disease isn’t the cause of your tender gums, review your oral care habits and make sure that you aren’t brushing too hard. Aggressive brushing can make gums extra sensitive.
If you have questions or concerns regarding periodontal disease, please give us a call. To learn about the services we provide, visit www.freshmeadowsdental.com for more information.
