Periodontal disease, commonly referred to as gum disease, is a condition caused by bacteria in plaque that can lead to inflammation and infection of the gum tissues. If left untreated, it can result in complications such as bone loss, gum tissue recession, and tooth loss.
Common signs of gum disease include swollen, red, or tender gums; gums that bleed easily; loose teeth; persistent bad breath; receding gums; and pain while chewing. If you notice any of these symptoms, professional evaluation can determine the presence and severity of the condition.
Treatment options for gum disease depend on individual needs and may include professional cleanings, improved at-home oral care, scaling and root planing, antibiotic treatments, or advanced procedures if necessary. The goal of treatment is to restore gum health and stop the progression of the disease.
