It's been a while since my last visit with my dentist. So, a week ago I visited her for my oral prophylaxis. She said that my teeth are still good but the only problem is Gingivitis or an inflammation of the gums. Need to learn what she was talking about. According to her, if not treated it can result in a more serious infection, so she gave me a Colgate PerioGard. After using it for a week, bleeding while brushing my teeth stopped. Now, I have healthy teeth and gums and can confidently eat anything without thinking about bleeding.
