Gum disease is primarily caused by inflammation of the gum line which can progress to the bone that supports your teeth.
It can also affect the general state of health and cause diseases such as diabetes, immunosuppression …
The three stages of gum disease – from less severe to most severe – are gingivitis, periodontitis, and advanced periodontitis.
It is the inflammation of the gums, caused by dental plaques in the gums accompanied by bleeding when brushing, redness or swelling. At this stage, gum disease can be treated easily because the bones and connective tissue that support the teeth in place are not yet affected.
In this case, the bones and connective tissue are irreversibly damaged. This promotes the penetration of the plaque below the gum line. Professional periodontal therapy is therefore essential to prevent further damage.
In this case, the bones and connective tissue of the teeth are being destroyed, giving way to a shift or loosening of the teeth. This problem affects the bite and the way of eating and communicating of people who suffer from it. If periodontal treatment cannot save them, it will be necessary to extract the tooth and think about replacing it by the dentist.
Here are some symptoms of gum disease:
Proper brushing and flossing go a long way in preventing gum disease. Using antibacterial toothpaste or mouthwash can kill bacteria and reduce the amount of plaque in your mouth. Removing dental plaque is the key to preventing gum disease and improving oral health.
