Periodontal Disease Management
Periodontal or gum disease is one of the leading cause of tooth loss among adults and is the most common disease in the world with estimates suggesting that 3 out of every 4 people unknowingly have some form of the disease. Gum Disease is a transmissible, bacterial infection that can destroy the attachment fibres and supporting bone that holds teeth in your mouth.
It is caused by plaque, a colorless film of bacteria that forms on our teeth. A person's reaction to the bacteria determines the severity of the resulting disease. Our ability to fight this infection can vary from day to day; week to week, depending on what else is going with our life and health.
