Gum disease is one of the leading causes of tooth loss in adults—but it’s also one of the most preventable. Routine dental cleanings are your first line of defense. At Holman Family Dentistry, we take gum health seriously and make every cleaning count.
When left untreated, gum disease can progress from mild inflammation to severe infection, causing damage to the bone and tissues that support your teeth. The good news? With consistent dental visits, you can stop gum disease before it starts.
Even with great at-home brushing and flossing, plaque and tartar can build up in hard-to-reach areas. During your professional cleaning, our team will:
These steps not only leave your mouth feeling fresh but also help prevent gingivitis—the earliest stage of gum disease—and identify any concerns before they become bigger problems.
Gum disease isn’t just a dental issue—it’s linked to several serious health conditions, including:
By controlling inflammation and reducing harmful bacteria, regular dental cleanings protect your oral health while also supporting your overall well-being.
If you’ve noticed bleeding when brushing, persistent bad breath, or gum sensitivity, it may be time for a cleaning—or a deeper evaluation. The earlier gum disease is detected, the easier it is to reverse and manage.
With routine visits to Holman Family Dentistry and personalized care tailored to your needs, you can maintain strong gums, healthy teeth, and a confident smile for years to come.
