Gum Disease : Glasgow Dentists
The gum diseases are characterized by swelling, bad breath, soreness, bleeding or infection of the tissues supporting the teeth. These are mainly of two types: gingivitis and periodontal disease. The inflammation of the gums is called Gingivitis. In Gingivitis the gums around the teeth become red and swollen and such gums often bleed while brushing the teeth.
Chronic gingivitis leads to periodontal disease. Periodontitis occurs when connective tissue and bone, below the gums got infected. Periodontitis progress very slowly. As the disease progress the bone holding the teeth in the jaw is lost, making the teeth loose and it is the major cause of tooth loss in adults. So if this condition is not treated, teeth begin to fall. Your Glasgow dentists offer best treatments for gingivitis as well as periodontal disease which keeps your gums healthy and will help you to retain your natural teeth lifelong.
