Keep Your Gums And Teeth Safe From Periodontal Disease
Millions of individuals around the world are walking around with periodontal disease, and aren’t even aware of it; could you be one of these people? Periodontal disease is an oral infection of the surrounding tissues that support your teeth in your mouth. Bacteria that live in your mouth form the plaque that causes the disease. It is not possible to remove all plaque from your teeth and gums, although brushing and flossing is a big help. This remainder of plaque eventually hardens to become tartar. Tartar that develops below the gum line agitates and infects the gums. This leads to gum disease.
