The Symptoms of Periodontitis
What causes periodontitis?
Bacteria (plaque)
force the gum to detach from the tooth forming a pocket. Brushing flossing and irrigating cannot reach the bacteria
at the base of the pocket. The pockets deepen and erode more of the bone that supports the teeth. The gum recedes,
the teeth loosen and fall out!
Your dentist can quickly diagnose advanced gum disease or periodontitis. The book
The Smile Method - How to Avoid Gum surgery and Dentures fully covers diagnosis and how to verify the effectiveness of
The Smile Method.
