General Health Information

After reaching the age of 35, the common cause of tooth loss is
periodontal disease and these are gum infections that destroys the
tissues and the bones that holds the teeth in place. Dental plaque is
the primary cause of gum disease. The bacteria in plaque causes the
gums to become inflamed and bleed easily. And when it is left
untreated, the disease may get even worse and can promote pockets of
infection to form between teeth and gums. This situation can lead to
receding gums and the loss of teeth support. Bone loss may cause the
teeth to eventually fall out. Removing plaque can prevent gum disease.
Brushing your teeth thoroughly and the use of natural gum disease cures
can help keep oral bacteria at bay. Carefully check your mouth for
early signs of disease such as red, swollen, or bleeding gums. Having
regular dental check ups twice a year can help monitor gum health.
