Periodontal Disease
Periodontitis
Signs to look out for:
- More advanced form of gingivitis and progresses if not treated
- Gums pull away from the tooth to form pockets
- The body tries to fight the plaque that spreads below the gum
- The toxins in the plaque and the body’s immune system cause bone loss and inflammation of the gums
- The supporting bone and gums are gradually destroyed
- Teeth can be eventually lost due to gum disease if not treated
