Gingivitis and gum care
A healthy gum does not bleed, neither while eating, nor during brushing, let alone spontaneously.
Gum diseases (gingivitis, periodontitis) affect more than 50% of the adult population.
Caused by the accumulation of bacteria, these infectious diseases often evolve without signs for years. They jeopardize the preservation of teeth by dismantling the supportive tissues of the teeth.
A healthy gum does not bleed, neither while eating, nor during brushing, let alone spontaneously. It is neither “swollen”, nor painful. Its color is pale pink.
It is important to monitor the health of your gums; bleeding is generally not related to a worn-out toothbrush; another issue is usually hidden behind it. Therefore, it is essential to consult quickly and not to let this situation linger.
