However, there are characteristic signs of suspicion that the patient must do: the bleeding of the gums during brushing, the unveiling of the tooth necks (recessions), the presence of swelling of the gingival margin, persistent bad breath, tooth hypersensitivity to the temperature changes, the presence of abscesses and eventually mobility for some dental elements. If one or more of these signs are present you need to consult a specialist in periodontology for a thorough examination of the mouth.
