Gum disease affects more people than we think
When people think of oral health, they often only consider the health and well-being of their teeth. However, your gums also play a major role in overall oral health. Your gums are the soft tissues that hold and anchor your teeth. Therefore, they require a lot of care and attention.
Unfortunately, many people neglect their gums. It is estimated that nearly 80% of Americans suffer from some stage of periodontal disease, otherwise known as gum disease. Gum disease is known as the number one cause of tooth loss among adult Americans. This serious disease can be easily treated with gum disease therapy.
