Periodontitis

Inflammation of the gums and supporting structures of the teeth is called Periodontitis. It is one of the most common human diseases caused by certain bacteria. It is commonly known as Gum disease.  Periodontitis is a very common condition in which the gums and deeper periodontal structures become inflamed. This inflammation of the gums, which usually takes the form of redness, swelling and a tendency to bleed during tooth brushing, is the body response to certain bacteria that have been allowed to accumulate on the teeth. Although these periodontal bacteria are naturally present in the mouth, they are only harmful when the conditions are right for them to increase dramatically in numbers. This happens when a layer of bacteria and food debris, known as plaque, builds up and is left undisturbed on the teeth, commonly in hard-to-reach areas such as between the teeth. If left untreated, the inflammation can spread down below the gums and along the roots of the teeth, causing destruction of the periodontal ligament and the supporting bone. This eventually leads to the loosening and potential loss of the teeth.
