Periodontal or gum disease is a result of the infection of the gums, that is the tissues holding your teeth in place. Generally, it is caused when you have poor brushing and flossing habits. This causes sticky film of bacteria known as plaque to build up and over time, this hardens, causing gum issues. Although common, this is a fairly preventable disease. If left untreated, it can lead to loss of teeth and could also be a potential risk factor for heart and lung diseases.
