Periodontal Disease

Periodontal is a broad term used to describe various diseases that affect the gums, bone, and surrounding structures of the teeth. The most common types of periodontal disease are gingivitis and periodontitis. Gingivitis causes bleeding and reddening of the gums. Periodontitis damages the bone and connective tissue that supports the teeth. Gingivitis is inflammation of the gum tissue. This happens when bacteria increases in mass to form a paste-like substance called plaque. Accumulation of plaque and tartar covering the teeth are the beginning stages of periodontal diseases. Tartar is a long standing plaque that has absorbed calcium on the tooth surface. Early detection and treatment are your best defense.
