Avoiding periodontal disease
Posted on July 15, 2008
Gum disease is called periodontal disease in dental terms. This is the infection of the tissues and bones that supports our teeth. Untreated periodontal disease can lead to tooth lose and other much more serious dental health problem. Periodontal disease is commonly caused by a plaque that builds up in the gum line. A plaque is an invisible layer of germs that forms naturally on the gum line. This plaque contains bacteria which is producing toxins that irritate or damage our gums. A regular healthy oral hygiene and a visit to your dentist are very effective in preventing gum disease to get worse.
