Periodontal Disease

Periodontal disease, also known as periodontitis or gum disease, is an infection in the soft tissue in the mouth, especially the gums. Without treatment, periodontal disease can make your teeth loose and can even lead to tooth and bone loss.

Periodontal disease is common, often as the result of poor oral hygiene. Proper brushing and flossing, augmented by regular dental exams, can greatly improve your chances of avoiding or treating periodontal disease.
