Gum disease is a prevalent oral health issue, affecting 70-90% of individuals at some point in their lives. If left untreated, it can lead to severe complications like tooth loss, bone deterioration, and even systemic health problems, such as diabetes and heart disease. At Dental Excellence, the premier dental clinic in Mohali and Chandigarh, we provide advanced gum surgeries and bone grafting treatments to restore oral health and preserve your smile.
Recognizing the Signs of Gum Disease
Gum disease, or periodontal disease, can present with the following symptoms:
- Persistent bad breath, even after brushing.
- Swollen, tender, or bleeding gums.
- Loose teeth or widening gaps between teeth.
- Tooth sensitivity and pain while chewing.
- Receding gums or changes in gum texture.
Risk Factors for Gum Disease:
- Tobacco Use: Increases susceptibility to infection.
- Chronic Conditions: Conditions like diabetes, arthritis, and heart disease elevate risk.
- Family History: Genetic predisposition to gum issues.
- Poor Oral Hygiene: Plaque and tartar buildup can lead to bacterial infections.
Systemic Impact:
Gum disease can contribute to elevated blood sugar levels in diabetics, cardiovascular issues, and pregnancy complications like preeclampsia and premature delivery.
