What is Gum Disease?
Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is an infection of the tissues that surround and support the teeth. It is primarily caused by the accumulation of plaque, a sticky film of bacteria that forms on teeth. In its early stage, called gingivitis, the gums become red, swollen, and may bleed easily. If left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, where the gums pull away from the teeth, forming pockets that become infected. This can lead to the breakdown of bone and connective tissue, potentially resulting in tooth loss. Maintaining good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups are crucial for preventing and managing gum disease.
