The periodontal structures are the tissues which hold your teeth in place, i.e. the bone and the gums. Periodontal disease causes the breakdown of these structures and results in loose teeth and eventually tooth loss. It can also cause bad breath and bleeding gums. Periodontal disease has a strong correlation to heart disease, meaning people with periodontal disease are at a higher risk of heart disease such as stroke. A direct cause and effect relationship has not been shown.
At Hampden House Dental Centre we will check your gums at every dental examination and provide you with appropriate advice and treatment to ensure your gums stay healthy.
