There are Many Diseases that can Affect the Gums, there are also many causes of these Diseases or Gum Infections. One of the most Important Reasons is the lack of attention to Oral and Dental Hygiene such as brushing the teeth twice a day, Lack of Flossing which helps in the accumulation of Bacteria and Tartar which are considered to be the main causes of Gingivitis (Gum Inflammation). Other causes Include Smoking, Blood Diseases, Malnutrition, Certain Medications and Genetic Factors .
Symptoms of Gingivitis include Gum Swelling , Gum Darkening or the formation of Periodontal Pockets between the Teeth and the Gums in which Bacteria and Tartar accumulate Leading to Weakening of the Teeth bone that can Eventually Lead to Tooth Loss. Teeth Scaling every 6 Months Helps Reduce the Possibility of Gum Diseases and Help you Maintain A Clean Healthy Mouth.
