What Is Periodontal Disease?
Periodontal
disease is an infectious and inflammatory disease which destroys the
periodontal tissues. These tissues consist of the gums and the bone that
support the teeth. It is a gum and bone disease. Periodontal disease
affects 3 out of 4 adults. It is caused by a growing colony of living
bacteria called "plaque".In the early stages of periodontal disease there is little, if any pain; therefore, you may not notice the gradual onset of puffiness and occasional bleeding. Without thorough removal, toxins from plaque cause the disease process continue. Periodontal disease left untreated may result in extensive bone destruction and possible tooth loss.
If detected in the early stages, periodontal disease can be treated and controlled.
We will refer to the timely diagnosis and treatment of the signs and symptoms of periodontal disease as Soft Tissue Management@.
