Symptoms of Gum Disease

Although over 85% of the population have some level of gum disease, the symptoms are often difficult to detect. Gums can recede, leaving teeth vulnerable to decay, abscesses and loss – without bleeding or tenderness. Dr. Murray uses his advanced training and the latest technology to diagnose periodontal disease and treat it before it becomes a major threat to your health. Minor symptoms to watch for at home include:
Bleeding when brushing or flossing
Puffiness or tenderness of the gums
Halitosis or bad breath
Loose feeling teeth
