• A professional dental infographic from Canyon View Dentistry comparing healthy gums and inflamed gums. The image shows two detailed cross-sections of teeth and surrounding gum tissue side by side. On the left, healthy gums appear pink and snug around the tooth, with stable bone levels and no plaque buildup. On the right, inflamed gums are red, swollen, and receding, with visible plaque and bacteria beneath the gumline, forming periodontal pockets. Labels highlight key differences such as pocket depth, plaque accumulation, bacterial presence, and treatment options like scaling and root planing (SRP) and Arestin placement. The design uses clean blue, gray, and red accents, with the Canyon View Dentistry logo prominently displayed at the top and a call-to-action banner along the bottom encouraging early care to prevent gum disease.
