Why Do My Gums Bleed When I Brush? A question many patients ask
Bleeding gums are often an early sign of gum inflammation caused by plaque buildup along the gum line. While it can seem minor, ignoring it may lead to gum disease over time. Proper brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits can help keep your gums healthy and prevent bigger issues down the road.

Straightening your teeth doesn’t have to mean brackets and wires. Invisalign uses clear, removable aligners to gently guide teeth into alignment, making it easier to eat, speak, and smile confidently throughout treatment. Modern orthodontic care is designed to fit your lifestyle, not disrupt it.
