Understanding Periodontal Disease
Periodontal disease (Gingivitis and Periodontitis) is a bacterial infection that occurs around the gums that can over time reach the fibres and bone that support your teeth. If periodontal (Gum) disease is not treated by a professional dentist, your teeth can eventually start to move and eventually you can even lose them.
However by having proper at home dental and oral care habits and by seeing a dentist regularly you greatly reduce your risk of having periodontal disease.
