Cause of White Gums and Bad Breath?

Q: My husband’s gums are white and also his breath smells. He brushes and gargles. What can be the cause.

A: Clearly your husband has gum disease. We don’t know the extent until he has a consultation with a Periodontist. This could be a case of poor oral hygiene to potentially advanced gum disease. The white areas could be plaque or perhaps something worse. I suggest a visit very soon to get the much needed treatment. Better yet, find a qualified experienced Laser Periodontist that does LANAP.
