What is Periodontitis

Periodontitis is a more advanced gum disease that occurs when gingivitis is not treated. Bacteria collect in pockets around the teeth and begin to break down the supporting bone of the tooth. This can lead to tooth loss if not addressed in time.

Common Symptoms
• bleeding gums
• bad breath
• loose teeth
• receding gums
• discomfort when chewing
