Q: Do only people who don’t brush and floss get the symptoms of gum disease?

A: Gum disease can be present in many different clinical situations. There are genetic factors in addition to local factors such as the bite and iatrogenic dentistry that can also contribute to the disease. Seeing a LANAP trained Periodontist is a good preventative measure.
