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
