Dental Health Tips St Johns Florida

Oral health problems to report to your dentist

To prevent gum disease and other oral health problems, schedule regular dental cleanings and exams — generally at least once or twice a year. In the meantime, contact your dentist if you notice any signs or symptoms that may suggest oral health problems, such as:

* Red, tender or swollen gums
* Gums that bleed when you brush or floss
* Gums that begin pulling away from your teeth
* Loose teeth
* Changes in the way your top and bottom teeth align with each other
* Unusual sensitivity to hot and cold

Early detection and treatment of oral health problems can ensure a lifetime of good oral health.
