Gum Disease (Periodontal Disease)

Gum disease is an infection of the tissues that surround and support your teeth. Due to the fact that gum disease is typically pain-free, you might not know you have it. Also called periodontal disease, gum disease is caused by plaque, the sticky film of bacteria that is continuously forming on our teeth.

Some warning signs that may indicate an issue:

• gums that bleed easily.


• red, inflamed, sore gums.


• gums that have actually retreated from the teeth.


• persistent bad breath or bad taste.


• permanent teeth that are separating or loose.


• any change in the way your teeth fit together when you bite.


• any difference in the fit of partial dentures.

There are many factors that enhance the danger of establishing gum disease consisting of smoking, pregnancy, and diabetes. It is necessary to go to your dentist if you think you have gum disease because the earlier you treat it the better.

The early stage of gum disease is called gingivitis. If you have gingivitis, your gums may become red, inflamed and bleed easily. At this stage, the disease is still fixable and can typically be removed by a professional cleaning at your dental office, followed by daily flossing and brushing.

Advanced gum disease is called periodontitis. Chronic periodontitis can lead to the loss of bone and tissue that support the teeth and it might become more extreme with time. If it does, your teeth will feel loose and start moving around in your mouth. It generally worsens slowly, however there can be periods of fast progression.

Aggressive periodontitis is a highly destructive type of periodontal disease that occurs in patients who are otherwise healthy. Common features include rapid loss of bone and tissue and may occur in some areas of the mouth, or in the entire mouth.

Research in between systemic diseases and periodontal diseases is ongoing. While a link is not conclusive, some research studies show that severe gum disease might be associated with numerous other health conditions such as stroke or diabetes.

Regular dental checkups and gum examinations are extremely important. The treatment methods that most dental professionals diagnose will depend upon the kind of disease and how far the condition has progressed. Good dental care in your home is vital to help keep gum disease from becoming more severe or recurring.
