What Are the Dangers of Periodontal Disease?

In this video, Dr. Chris Powell explains how periodontal disease can impact systemic health and stresses the importance of early detection and treatment.

Periodontal disease poses significant risks beyond tooth loss and bad breath. It can also impact systemic health by exacerbating conditions like diabetes and increasing the risk of cardiovascular problems. The inflammation and bacteria associated with gum disease can contribute to these broader health issues, highlighting the importance of early detection and treatment.

If you suspect you may have gum disease, seeking professional dental care promptly is crucial to safeguarding both your oral and overall health.
