Periodontology (Gingival Disease and Treatments)

If you are told that you have gum disease, you are not alone! Gum disease is usually red, edematous and bleeding and shows inflammatory symptoms, but do not worry because today there are advanced treatment options for the problem. However, if it is not being treated, there is a high possibility that loosing teeth will occur. 

Early prevention matters, why?

1. When bacteries are not removed from your teeth, gingivities occur.
2. If the infection causes periodontitis, the problem spreads to the bone and this is why you may loose your teeth.
3. Before it is too late, take care of your daily oral care and consider a diet that avoids sugary foods and beverages.
