My gums bleed after I brush. Is this something to be concerned about?
Absolutely! Bleeding gums can be a sign of gum disease, which can cause
all kinds of health problems. Gum disease can cause you to lose the
bone in your jaw and eventually your teeth. The bacteria that cause
gum disease have also been linked to problems like heart disease,
diabetes and stroke.
If your gums are bleeding, please don’t wait. Call our office
today for an appointment.

"I would travel 500 miles for this doctor and not think twice. My journey
has not been an easy one, but truly no one could have done what
Dr. Dodsworth has done for me. My mouth is healthy from the bones
to the gum and teeth.
I can smile and feel wonderful doing so."
