Description
Gingivitis is a response by the gum tissue caused by plaque building up around the teeth. If your brushing and flossing technique is not adequate, plaque will build up at the junction where the teeth come through the gums. This will irritate the gums and cause them to become inflamed and swollen. You may notice they bleed when you brush your teeth, or they may appear red rather than pink and healthy. Gingivitis is a reversible condition and effective cleaning will lead to healthy gums in a couple of weeks. If the plaque has hardened into calculus we can remove this for you professionally.

Periodontal disease is a disease of the gum tissue and underlying bone. Unlike gingivitis, periodontitis is associated with irreversible loss of the underlying bone. Gum pockets usually open up between the tooth and gum and act as reservoirs for bacteria unless treated. The rate of bone loss varies very much from individual to individual. Up to 80 of the population will most likely have some form of periodontal disease, and some of these people will lose a number of teeth if they do not obtain treatment. Periodontitis is usually painless, so by the time people become aware they have a problem, teeth are becoming loose or drifting out of alignment. By this stage serious damage has been done, although if caught early enough, most cases can be treated.
