Why Does My Pocket Depth Matter?


A leading indicator someone has some form of periodontal disease is the pocket depth of your gums. Why? Periodontal Disease is an infection of the tissues that support your teeth. Unfortunately, the infection attacks just below the gum line where your teeth are attached to your gums. As the infection becomes more severe, the tissue below the gum line is damaged and begins to develop into a deeper pocket.

Another leading indicator of some form of periodontal disease is the presence of blood after minor to moderate probing of your gums, flossing of your teeth, or brushing your teeth. The combination of pocket depth and presence of blood are typically strong indicators of some form of periodontal disease.

Common symptoms of some form of periodontal disease are sore gums, presence of blood in the mouth, or chronic bad breadth. If you would like to schedule a comprehensive periodontal dental evaluation, consider looking for a Colorado Springs Dental & Specialty Practice that has both a general dentist and periodontist on staff to help assess your situation. Call All Smiles Dental Group in Colorado Springs at 719-599-0665 to schedule your appointment today.
