Periodontitis, also known as gum disease or gum infections affects the soft tissues of your teeth. If this is not treated on time then it can even lead to jawbone loss. Poor oral hygiene and ignorance about dental conditions can lead to this disease. It is extremely harmful to your teeth and can even cause tooth loss. Dr. Sheetal at Bliss Dental Lounge advises everyone to visit their dentist at least twice a year to ensure your oral health. So whether you are facing any dental problem or if you want to come for a regular check-up, Bliss Dental Lounge is always there for you. We have our clinics located in Odessa, FL, and Lutz, FL.
Periodontal diseases are mainly caused due to poor oral hygiene routine. When you do not brush and floss your teeth properly twice a day, then plaque gets formed and it hardens under your gum line to form tartar. Even though plaque can be removed easily with regular brushing and flossing but tartar is hard. It can only be removed by a dentist using the deep cleaning technique. If ignored, it can lead to gingivitis that causes inflammation on the gums, and finally, it will lead to a serious periodontal disease. Pockets develop in between your gum and teeth which get filled with tartar and bacteria. If this is left untreated, then it can affect your tissues and bones, and can even lead to tooth loss.
