Periodontal disease is serious problem.
If left untreated, periodontal disease can break down enough bone and gum tissue to cause teeth in the affected area to become loose and eventually fall out.
Periodontal disease is the most common cause of tooth loss in adults.
Stress, smoking and poor nutrition can be contributing factors to gum disease.
Recent studies also indicate that there is a link between the bacteria that cause periodontal disease and increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and preterm low birth weight.
