If plaque and tartar is left on the teeth, as we mentioned before, it provides the right conditions for bacteria to thrive. The bacteria irritate the gums, which can cause them to bleed more easily. You may notice this if you are brushing your teeth or eating, and your gums bleed a bit. This is the early stage of gum disease called gingivitis.

Common symptoms of deep pocket depths and gum disease are as follows:
- Bad Breath
- Loose Teeth
- Bleeding Gums
