Bleeding or sore gums can be a sign of gingivitis, an early and reversible stage of gum disease, or simply the result of brushing too hard or starting a new flossing routine. If your gums bleed regularly, or enough to worry you, make an appointment with your dentist or physician, it could be a sign that something else is wrong.

Healthy
Teeth Help You Live Longer
Did you know that your dental health could affect your
overall general health? Having a beautiful, healthy smile
isn’t just about looking good. The U.S. Surgeon General,
David Satcher, MD, Ph.D., reports that neglecting oral
health can promote deadly diseases such as kidney and heart
disease, oral cancer, diabetes, and/or respiratory ailments.
Since your oral health mirrors your general health, you can
take steps to prevent future problems. Proper nutrition,
fluoride, and optimum oral hygiene will help keep your teeth
and gums healthier for life. Regular checkups and tooth
cleanings also prevent problems. Even with the best of care
some dental problems can still occur. Old crowns and amalgam
fillings may need a redo – they don’t last forever.
Accidents or dental trauma can cause missing or broken teeth
that also may need to be restored.

If your teeth hurt when you drink hot or cold beverages, you may have sensitive teeth. This can be the result of tooth decay, fractured teeth, worn fillings, gum disease, worn tooth enamel or an exposed tooth root due to gum recession. Treatment will depend on the source of sensitivity. If you’re concerned about the sensitivity of your teeth see your dentist for diagnosis and treatment options.

Types of mouth sores include canker sores, cold sores, leukoplakia and candidiasis. They vary in their severity and causes. Mouth sores could be the symptom of a disease or disorder; infection from bacteria, viruses or fungus or result from irritation caused by braces, dentures or the sharp edge of a broken tooth or filling. Your dentist should examine any mouth sore that lasts a week or longer.
