If you have swollen, bleeding gums, you may have periodontal
disease. The sooner this is controlled your mouth and teeth
will feel better. If untreated, gum disease will cause serious
loss of bone and teeth. Gum disease has also been linked to
heart disease, stoke, low weight and premature babies. Gum
disease is also exacerbated by diabetes. The American Dental
Association (ADA) says that over 75- 80 % of all adults have
some degree of gum disease. Gum disease has reached epidemic
proportions and we take it very seriously, SO SHOULD YOU!
