Do your gums bleed after flossing or brushing? Does it hurt when you bite into crunchy or hard foods? Do you notice the colour of your gums turning darker? If you are experiencing one or more of these symptoms, you may have gum disease. Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is an infection of the tissues that hold your teeth in place. Thankfully, it is a treatable disease, particularly when detected at an early stage. Gum disease is typically caused by poor brushing and flossing habits that allow plaque—a sticky film of bacteria—to build up on the teeth and harden.
