Do you need a Periodontal Checkup?

Gum disease often progresses quietly. Many patients don’t realize they need care until the condition has become serious. Scheduling an evaluation when you first suspect an issue can prevent tooth loss, improve your oral comfort, and reduce risks linked to systemic health issues.

Common warning signs of gum disease include:

  • Persistent bad breath or a bad taste
  • Red, swollen, or bleeding gums
  • Tender gums or pain when chewing
  • Teeth that shift or feel loose
  • Increased sensitivity or gum recession
  • Spaces that seem to be forming between teeth

If you’re experiencing one or more of these symptoms, or if it has been more than six months since your last cleaning, schedule a periodontal exam with our dentist in Virginia Beach, VA.
