Gum Care Awareness: How Autobrush Protects Your Gums
Healthy teeth start with healthy gums. That’s why every September, dental professionals highlight Gum Care Awareness Month, a reminder that protecting your gums is just as important as brushing your teeth.
Gum disease is one of the most common oral health problems in the world, yet it’s also one of the most preventable. The key? Consistent care and the right tools.
Why Gum Health Matters
Your gums protect the bone and roots of your teeth. When neglected, plaque buildup can lead to gingivitis (red, swollen gums) and eventually periodontitis, a more serious condition that causes gum recession, tooth mobility, and even tooth loss (ADA, 2023).
Signs of unhealthy gums include:
- Bleeding when brushing or flossing
- Persistent bad breath
- Swelling or tenderness
- Gum recession
The good news? Daily habits make a huge difference in preventing gum disease.
