Periodontal disease is a chronic, progressive, silent infection. Delay can cause you further loss of jaw bone, loose teeth, eventual tooth loss due to lack of bone support, abscesses, loss of function, tooth migration with aesthetic involvement, exposure of dental tooth, and systemic health compromise. Periodontitis has been implicated with cardiovascular diseases, endocarditis, diabetes, and other metabolic diseases. If your teeth are lost, dentures are never as effective as your own natural teeth. Dental implants are the second best option after your own teeth.
