If you schedule regular cleanings, our dentist and hygienists will be aware of any problems in your mouth as they begin to occur. However, we’re not with you every day. There are numerous signs you need to seek periodontal treatment for potential problems, including:

1. Red, bleeding or swollen gums
2. Chronic bad breath
3. Receding gums
4. Shifting teeth
5. Sensitivity or pain when eating
