GINGIVITIS AND EARLY GUM DISEASE

Gingivitis is an early stage of gum disease and a common dental problem. The Canadian Dental Association estimates 7 out of 10 Canadians will develop gum disease at some point in their lives.1 It can be almost painless until you have a real problem which is why it is so important to prevent it before it becomes too serious.
