Oral health

Gum specialist would like to talk about the connection between your oral health and general health. Gum disease is an infection of the gums and supporting structures of the teeth caused by bacteria, the end result of which is a loss of precious tooth support in the form of gum and alveolar bone. Over a period of time, Gingivitis (gum inflammation) when untreated slowly leads to Periodontitis that can cause the destruction of supporting bone and eventually lead to tooth loss.
