Periodontal disease (gum disease) is the number one cause of tooth loss, and is caused by bacteria that eat away at the gum tissues and jawbone. Bacteria can literally multiply by the millions in just a few hours and if not removed it will cause a pocket between the gum tissues and the tooth. You will notice some bleeding as this occurs, possible bad breath, bad taste, and maybe red, sore, or swollen gums. As the bacteria hides in the pocket, it turns into toxins or poisons and starts eating away at the jawbone, causing receding, and possibly a loose tooth. If left untreated not only will you lose teeth, but periodontal disease is also linked to heart disease, strokes, respitory disease, digestive disorders, pancreatic cancer and preterm low birth weight babies, diabetes and obesity. It is a silent disease, therefore it is possible to have gum disease with no warning signs. That is one reason why regular dental cleaning with one of our specially trained Hygienists is so important. They will help you to establish a good hygiene program for optimum oral health.
