Gum Disease

Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is one of the most common causes of tooth loss in adults. It develops when plaque and bacteria accumulate around the gums, causing inflammation, bleeding and, in more advanced cases, damage to the bone supporting the teeth.

Early treatment is highly effective and often involves professional cleaning, improved oral hygiene techniques and regular maintenance appointments. Symptoms such as bleeding gums, bad breath or gum recession should never be ignored.

At Dentist Malahide, we focus strongly on prevention and early diagnosis. Regular dental examinations and hygiene care can help keep your gums healthy and protect your teeth for life.
