Periodontal Disease

Periodontal disease affects a staggering 80% of the population, yet many remain unaware until significant damage occurs. While often painless in early stages, this silent condition can lead to severe dental complications requiring costly interventions.

Key Warning Signs

  • Bleeding or swollen gums
  •  Loose teeth
  • Chronic bad breath
  • Gum inflammation and redness
  • Dental infections

Understanding Periodontal Disease

This serious gum condition attacks both gums and supporting bone structure. The primary culprit is plaque – a harmful combination of bacteria, food particles, and saliva that hardens into tartar when not properly removed. Beyond oral health, periodontal disease has been linked to serious systemic conditions including heart disease, diabetes, and pregnancy complications.

Professional Care

Early detection through regular dental examinations is crucial. Using advanced diagnostic tools like X-rays and intraoral cameras, dental professionals can identify and treat periodontal issues before they progress into more serious conditions. Professional intervention at early stages can prevent extensive damage and maintain your oral health.

Don’t wait for symptoms to worsen. Regular dental check-ups are your best defense against periodontal disease and its potentially serious complications.
