You should check yourself for the warning signs of gum disease. However, you may have gum disease that has spread into the bone and do not have any of these symptoms. Because many people do not experience any pain, gum disease often goes unnoticed. That is why it is important to have regular dental appointments, including a periodontal exam.
Although plaque is the primary cause of periodontal diseases, there are other secondary factors that can affect the health of your gums. Health: if you are diabetic, you are at higher risk for developing infections, including periodontal diseases. These infections can impair the ability to process and/or utilize insulin, which may cause your diabetes to be more difficult to control and your infection to be more severe than a non-diabetic.
Recent studies have shown that there is a definite relationship between periodontal infections, and systemic diseases. Periodontal disease may also produce systemic effects in the body including an association with cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease and premature, low birth weight babies.
If you've already lost a tooth or multiple teeth, you may be interested in DENTAL IMPLANTS- the permanent tooth replacement options. A dental implant is made of titanium and shaped like a screw. The implant is placed into the jawbone and serves as a secure root for the new tooth. Once in place, the implant can be used to attach different types of dental restorations, such as crowns, bridges or dentures. Whether you are missing one tooth, several teeth or have lost all your teeth, dental implants are a permanent way to get new ones.
