Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease, or periodontal disease, is a common dental condition caused by plaque and bacteria buildup, leading to inflammation and infection of the gums and surrounding tissues. It can range from mild gingivitis to severe periodontitis, resulting in tooth loss and bone damage. Treatment involves professional cleaning, medication, and improved oral hygiene habits. Early detection and treatment are vital to preserve oral health and prevent further damage.
