Could you have Gum Disease??

Early diagnosis of infection is essential.
Gingivitis is the mildest form of infection where gums become red and swollen,and bleed easily.
Its treatable with professional and home care.
Periodontitis is more serious and can lead to extensive bone and tissue loss and eventually tooth loss.
