Top 5 signs your gums need more attention
Your gums play a critical role in your oral health—and your overall health too. But most people don’t realize their gums need help until it’s too late. Healthy gums are firm, pink, and pain-free. If you’re noticing any of these signs, it might be time to upgrade your oral care routine.
1. Bleeding When You Brush or Floss
A little blood might not seem like a big deal, but it’s one of the first signs of gum inflammation (gingivitis). Healthy gums shouldn't bleed during normal brushing or flossing. This could mean there's plaque buildup irritating your gums.
💧 Solution: Switch to a water flosser like LustraJet, which gently cleans below the gumline without aggravating sensitive tissue.
2. Red, Swollen, or Tender Gums
Inflammation is your body’s way of responding to irritation or infection. If your gums are puffy, sore, or darker than usual, it's a sign they're stressed.
🧼 Tip: Gently clean with a water flosser daily to soothe inflammation and remove debris your toothbrush can’t reach.
3. Persistent Bad Breath (Halitosis)
Bad breath isn’t always about what you eat—it can also be a sign of bacteria trapped between your teeth and gums. These bacteria feed on food particles and release unpleasant odors.
🌬️ Upgrade: A proper clean, especially with a device that targets hidden areas like LustraJet, can dramatically freshen your breath.
4. Receding Gum Line
If your teeth are starting to look longer, or if you notice exposed roots, your gums may be pulling back due to chronic irritation or damage. Left untreated, this can lead to tooth sensitivity and even tooth loss.
🦷 Care Tip: Gentle daily water flossing may help reduce inflammation and slow further recession.
5. Loose Teeth or Sensitivity
If your teeth feel like they’re shifting or if you experience sharp pain when eating hot or cold foods, your gum support may be weakening. This could signal advanced gum disease (periodontitis).
🛑 Act fast: These symptoms require immediate attention—and a better oral care routine to prevent progression.
