Periodontitis is an oral disease that causes permanent damage to the attachment fibers and jawbone (periodontium).
The dental hygienists at Mondfit specialize in early detection and treatment of gingivitis and periodontitis to minimize and even prevent permanent damage.
The condition occurs because dental plaque and tartar are left unaddressed for too long, causing gum inflammation (gingivitis).
When left untreated, the condition leads to deep pockets between the gums and jawbone where harmful bacteria damage the jawbone and attachment fibers.
Periodontitis leads to gum recession which in turn leaves the previously unexposed roots of the teeth partially exposed. This can cause a lot of pain during brushing and when eating or drinking.
The longer periodontitis goes untreated, the more it deteriorates the condition of the mouth. Untreated periodontitis eventually reaches the jawbone, causing teeth to loosen and eventually fall out.
