Treating Periodontal Disease Protects Your Overall Health
Gum disease is a bacterial infection that affects the gum and bone tissue surrounding your teeth. When periodontal disease develops, it can cause your teeth to loosen and even lead to tooth and bone loss. You may be surprised to learn that gum disease is the number one cause of tooth loss in adults.
Prompt treatment of gum disease is especially important as recent studies indicate that a connection exists between the health of your mouth and your overall wellness. We now know that chronic diseases of the mouth like periodontal disease can contribute to serious complications like heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and even premature and low birth-weight babies
