Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about gum health and periodontal treatment.

Gum disease is mainly caused by plaque bacteria building up along and under the gumline. When plaque isn't removed, it hardens into tartar and causes inflammation. Risk factors include smoking, diabetes, hormonal changes, certain medications, and genetics. Even those with good hygiene can develop gum disease.
