Early signs of gum disease (gingivitis) include red, swollen, or tender gums that bleed when you brush or floss. As it progresses to periodontitis, you may notice persistent bad breath, receding gums, loose teeth, or changes in your bite. Gum disease is one of the leading causes of tooth loss in adults, but it is highly treatable when caught early. If you notice any of these symptoms, schedule an appointment as soon as possible.
