Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile; and they also play a vital role in your overall wellbeing. Research shows strong links between gum disease (periodontal disease) and wider health concerns such as heart disease, diabetes, and infections that can affect the heart valves. Good gum health doesn’t just protect your mouth—it helps protect your whole body.

By combining your daily care at home with our professional support in practice, we can protect your gums, strengthen your teeth, and safeguard your long-term health.
Understanding Gum Disease
Gum disease is very common, and in its early stages it can be easy to overlook. That’s why it’s important to spot the warning signs early:
- Red, puffy, or swollen gums
- Bleeding when brushing or flossing
- Receding gums that make teeth look longer
- Sensitive teeth or exposed root surfaces
- Persistent bad breath or an unpleasant taste
- Adult teeth that feel loose or have shifted position
If you notice any of these changes, our team is here to help with gentle, effective treatment.
At Terrace Dental Care, you’ll be welcomed by a friendly, professional team who are passionate about helping you feel at ease. Our dentists, hygienists, and support staff combine years of expertise with a gentle, caring approach—so every visit feels reassuring and personalised to you.
