  • Preventing and Treating Gum Problems

    Added On : 28th November 2012

    Healthy teeth depend on healthy gums. Gums protect the base of the teeth, where connective tissue anchors them to bone. Left untreated, gum problems can lead to tooth loss. Fortunately, there's plenty you can do to keep gums healthy.

    2 Types of Gum Disease

    Gum disease takes two forms: gingivitis and periodontitis.

    Gingivitis occurs when bacteria collect in tiny pockets at the gum line, causing inflammation. The most common symptoms are bleeding when teeth are brushed and persistent bad breath. Gingivitis accounts for about 70% of gum disease. Periodontitis makes up the other 30%.

    If gingivitis goes untreated, the inflammation can invade connective tissue and even bone. This causes periodontitis.
