(Black PR Wire) MIAMI, FL – Good gum health plays a key role in maintaining a healthy smile. February marks Gum Disease Awareness Month, and in recognition of Phanord and Associates, PA., joins hundreds of organizations across the country to raise awareness of periodontal disease and the importance of early diagnosis.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, affects nearly half of adults age 30 and older and is the leading cause of tooth loss when left untreated.
Often painless in its early stages, gum disease can develop quietly, with symptoms such as persistent bad breath, swollen gums, bleeding gums and loose teeth appearing as the condition progresses.
“We encourage patients to prioritize preventive care through regular dental checkups, professional cleanings and consistent oral hygiene at home,” he said. Dr. Kevin Fanord. “Early detection and treatment is key to stopping gingivitis before it causes permanent damage,” he added Dr. Kyle Phanord.
Phanord & Associates, PA shares with patients and the community at large the following tips for maintaining healthy gums:
- Brush twice a day for at least two minutes
