Aggressive Periodontitis Treatment
Periodontitis result from a prolonged and untreated periodontal condition which is similar to gingivitis. It’s inflammation of the periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone that surrounds the teeth. If left untreated, the damage can result in medical complications such as renal failure, tooth movement, deep jawbone, myocardial infection, stroke, and atherosclerosis. Patients who undergo aggressive periodontitis treatment are subjected to clinical tests, making it easier to narrow down the medical condition.
The Gum Disease And Heart Attack
In addition to helping keep gums and teeth healthy, there are even more reasons to brush and floss regularly. Researchers have determined that the same oral bacteria that cause dental plaque and lead to gum disease can also enter the bloodstream. Once in the bloodstream, these bacteria can cause blood clots that increase the risk of stroke and heart attack.
