Gingivitis

Gum Disease Treatment

Gingivitis is the early stage of gum disease, marked by red, swollen, or bleeding gums. If left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, leading to tooth loss.

  • Plaque and tartar build-up
  • Smoking
  • Poor oral hygiene
  • Certain medical conditions or medications

Using advanced digital X-rays and intra-oral cameras, Dr Lu identifies gum problems early. He provides gentle but thorough professional cleans and educates patients on proper home care.

Untreated gum disease increases risk of tooth loss and is linked to heart disease and diabetes complications.
