The CDC
Transcript:
The CDC describes common warning signs of gum disease, including bad breath, gums that are red, swollen, bleeding, or tender; pain when chewing; loose or sensitive teeth; receding gums; change in bite; and change in the fit of partial dentures. Additional factors that increase the risk of gum disease include smoking, diabetes, stress, and poor oral hygiene. That said, most people can improve their dental hygiene and reduce their risk for developing gum disease by following a few simple steps: - Brush. Brush your teeth twice daily with fluoride toothpaste. - Floss. Floss your teeth once a day. - Rinse. Oral rinses play an important role in a dental health routine. Gum disease is caused by bacteria, but an oral rinse formulated with bacteria-targeting ingredients can help keep gum disease at bay.
