PERIODONTAL DISEASE: CAN IT BE REVERSED? 🦷🔍✨

🚨 Can periodontal disease be reversed? Let’s look at the facts! 🧐

Periodontal disease begins with the bacteria found in plaque, and removing it daily is essential—brush 4 times and floss at least once! 🙌🏼

Early-stage gum disease, known as gingivitis, IS reversible. 🌱 If caught early, you can restore gum health through improved oral hygiene. However, if gingivitis progresses, it can lead to gum recession and bone loss, which can't be reversed.

While we can’t cure gum disease, we have effective treatments like bone grafting to help manage it and improve tissue health. 💪

Prioritize your dental care—early detection is key to preventing further damage! Have a great day! ☀️
