Oral Health: Warning Signs You Should Never Ignore

Uncategorized

 

Nearly 9 in10 diseases can cause symptoms in your mouth. That puts your dentist on the front line for spotting serious health conditions developing silently in your body. This is one reason it’s so important to see us at least two times a year for dental cleanings and checkups.

When caring for your teeth and gums at home, it’s also important to watch for new problems in your mouth. They may be warning signs of more serious conditions in your body. Symptoms to look out for include:

  • Gum, tooth, or jaw pain
  • Bleeding gums
  • Loose or lost teeth
  • Recurring bad breath
  • Sores, irregular patches, or lumps in your mouth

If you notice any of these signs, see us right away. We will diagnose specific dental issues that may be developing. Or can refer you to another health care professional for further evaluation and treatment.
