AUSTIN, Texas - TelAve -- Bleeding gums are rarely trivial. For millions of Americans, they are the earliest warning sign of periodontal disease — a bacterial infection that silently threatens not just oral health, but whole-body health.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly 47% of adults over 30 in the United States have some form of periodontal disease — a condition the American Dental Association (ADA) has directly linked to heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.

Downtown Dental Design at 507 Pressler St #350, Austin, TX 78703, led by Dr. Negar Eslami, DDS — a leading dentist serving Austin, Texas, with over 25 years of experience — is raising community awareness about this widespread but frequently overlooked condition.

Why Bleeding Gums Should Never Be Ignored

Periodontal disease progresses silently — often without pain — through stages that can lead to gum recession, loose teeth, and eventual tooth loss. The chronic inflammation it triggers can enter the bloodstream, elevating risks for heart disease and stroke.

"Bleeding gums are one of the most common things patients dismiss as minor. But in my 25 years of practice, I've seen firsthand how untreated gum disease silently builds into something far more serious — for the mouth and the entire body," says Dr. Negar Eslami, DDS, a leading dentist in Austin, TX.

"Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy body. When we treat gum disease early, we are often doing far more than saving teeth — we are reducing inflammation that affects the heart, the brain, and beyond," adds Dr. Negar Eslami, DDS.
