Periodontal gum disease: what is it?
It is an infection in the area around the tooth that affects the gums and bone that support the tooth. Gum disease can affect one tooth or many teeth, and if left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss! This is not something you want to happen, especially when it is preventable with my help! By contacting Dr. Fields’s dentist office in Van Nuys, CA. you can take care of this problem sooner than later and preserve your dental health.
How could I have gotten periodontal gum disease?
So many everyday things in our lives, such as smoking, stress, pregnancy, medication, poor nutrition or other causes can lead to gum disease. Periodontal gum disease is often caused by poor or inadequate oral hygiene. The good news is that it is reversible with excellent professional care, and that’s why I’m here.
