Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a very common condition. It is estimated that up to three quarters of adults in the UK are affected in some way-with most people experiencing it at least once in their lifetime. It is the main cause of tooth loss amongst adults. Gum disease is caused by the plaque which gradually builds on the surface of your teeth and gums each day. No matter how well you look after your teeth it is impossible to stop this build up with regular brushing and flossing alone. That is why regular dental appointments are so important.
