Gum disease is an affliction that, if left untreated, can lead to the destruction of tissues gathered around the teeth, such as gums and bone. The main cause of the development of periodontitis is the formation of a bacterial biofilm on the surface of the teeth and in the gingival cavities. There are many factors that can contribute to this disease, although the accumulation of biofilm itself plays a significant and even crucial role in the formation of periodontitis. In treatment, it is extremely important to take immediate preventive and curative measures, as untreated gum disease can lead to serious consequences, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, premature labor in pregnant women or pre-eclampsia, which threatens the lives of mother and child. The most dangerous complication, however, is periostitis, which can even lead to death in extreme cases!
