Do You Know Your Gum Score?
What Is Gum Score?
Your gum health is a crucial part of your overall well-being, and your Gum Score is an important number to know. Just like blood pressure, it indicates your gum health by tracking the number of spots where your gums bleed. A score of 10 or less is ideal, as higher numbers suggest gum disease, which can lead to more serious issues like periodontitis and bone loss. Bleeding gums are an early sign of infection, but treatments like Perio Protect can help reduce inflammation, fight bacteria, whiten teeth, and freshen breath. Regular check-ups and early intervention can prevent serious problems and keep your gums healthy.
Perio Protect
Chances are, you have a solid routine when it comes to oral hygiene: brush, maybe floss, gargle, and repeat. And you should continue doing all of those things. You may even schedule regular six-month dental cleanings, which is great—keep it up.
However, for over half of American adults, that’s still not enough to ward off bad breath, gum disease, or even overall health issues. That’s because your toothbrush is just one tool, and it can only do so much. When it comes to penetrating below the gum line—where open wounds and gum disease are known to thrive—you need more.
Custom trays, molded specifically to your mouth, are designed with a patented seal that gently delivers bacteria-fighting hydrogen peroxide deep below your gums, reaching areas where a toothbrush simply can’t. It’s the difference between a Band-Aid and a tourniquet.
Benefits of Perio Protect:
The biggest benefit? You’re in control, and it can be done in the comfort of your own home. By treating gum disease in this non-invasive way, you can clear up infections that cause bleeding gums. This is crucial because bleeding gums can become a conduit for pathogens to enter your bloodstream, potentially leading to larger issues like heart disease, diabetes, and colorectal cancer.
Furthermore, this treatment also brightens teeth and freshens breath. So, keep brushing. Maybe get a new toothbrush while you’re at it, but keep brushing. And know that the results you’re seeking can be achieved with a treatment that’s almost as simple as brushing your teeth.
