An infection in the gums is called disease periodontal. When the condition is left untreated it can cause tooth loss in adults and even in teenagers. Since disease periodontal attacks without giving any signs of pain, it is important to have regular dental check ups and cleanings. The cause of disease periodontal is the plaque build up which can cause damage to the gums.
The symptoms of disease periodontal may indicate other health or medical problems. For diagnosis consult a health specialist or dentist.
Disease periodontal treatments may include removal of plaque, deep cleaning that can get rid of plaque and the tissues that are infected in the disease’s stage, while smoothing the root surface of teeth that are damaged. If the disease is already in the advanced stage, medication and surgery are the best treatments. Pocket reduction, regeneration procedure, a soft tissue graft, and crown lengthening are the surgeries that will be applied to treat the gum condition.
To save oral health and save pocket from the expensive cost of periodontal treatments done in the dentist’s office, preventing disease periodontal is a must. Compliment a good program of oral hygiene with an all natural oral care product like OraMD that can protect the teeth safely and effectively from any disease in the mouth.
