Maintain Healthy Gums

Maintain healthy gums through good oral hygiene habits and a simple cleaning called prophylaxis. This procedure must be performed every 6 months or more frequently during pregnancy and while wearing braces.

However, in the presence of bone and gum disease, periodontal treatment is required.

Periodontitis (previously called pyorrhea) means inflammation around the tooth. It is a serious gum infection that damages the soft tissue and bone that support the tooth.

Causes of Periodontitis

Recent studies show that 80% of the population (30 years old and above) may suffer from this disease with the severity varying drastically from one person to another. Periodontal disease is the #1 cause of tooth loss after the age of 30.

Certain medical conditions or medications can make you more susceptible to gum disease. They include pregnancy, diabetes, epilepsy, and medications such as chemotherapy, birth control pills, antidepressants, and those for heart problems.
