Periodontal Care
Periodontal disease, or gum disease, is the result of infections and inflammation of the gums and bones surrounding your teeth. Periodontitis is common, affecting almost half of Americans. It is generally preventable, but severe cases may require surgery.
What causes Periodontal Disease?
Periodontitis is caused by poor oral hygiene such as not brushing your teeth or flossing. As bacteria builds up around your teeth and gums, it attacks and infects your gums leading to inflammation. If left untreated, periodontitis can cause permanent damage to your gums and the surrounding bone.
What are symptoms of Periodontal Disease?
The symptoms of periodontal disease can vary depending on how developed the condition is. The first stage is called gingivitis and it’s generally reversible. In this stage, you can experience gum inflammation, discoloration, bleeding, and bad breath. If you let the gingivitis develop, it will turn into “periodontitis”, in which you can experience additional symptoms of pain and discomfort and gaps between your gums and teeth.
Does Periodontal Disease have to be treated?
Advancement of periodontitis leads to permanent damage, tooth loss, a foul taste, and the formation of pus between your gums and teeth. Don’t risk your smile. Come in to get screened for periodontal disease!
