It can be easy to think, \u201cWhat\u2019s the big deal? As long as I don\u2019t have\ncavities, my smile is healthy.\u201d However, there\u2019s a lot more to a healthy smile\nthan teeth alone! Not only that, but studies have shown a strong link between\nyour gums and your overall health, which makes it even more important to make\nsure gum disease is diagnosed and treated. In this blog, you\u2019ll learn more\nabout this common condition and what causes it as well as how gum disease\ntherapy can help!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Causes Gum Disease?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some of the factors that cause gum disease are in your\ncontrol and some aren\u2019t. Poor oral hygiene habits, skipping professional\ncheckups and cleanings, and smoking are all risk factors that you can do\nsomething about. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, risk factors like heredity, diabetes and heart\ndisease are either entirely or mostly out of your control. Having said that,\nworking with your medical doctor to manage diabetes and heart disease is\nhelpful as these conditions are both a cause and effect of gum disease.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Does Gum Disease Affect Your Oral and General Health?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This surprises most people, but gum disease is actually the leading\ncause of tooth loss. It\u2019s also been found to increase the risk for all of the\nfollowing: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Heart disease<\/li><li>Stroke<\/li><li>Diabetes<\/li><li>Respiratory problems<\/li><li>Dementia<\/li><li>Some Cancers<\/li><li>Pregnancy complications<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can You Improve Your Gum Health? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For patients who only have the first stage of gum disease (called\ngingivitis), it can usually be cured with good oral hygiene habits and regular\ncleanings. And, although advanced gum disease can\u2019t be cured, it can be treated\nto prevent it from progressing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first step? Scheduling a routine checkup, which includes\na gum examination. If you have gum disease, a dentist can provide <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patrickcrowleydds.com\/periodontal-therapy.html\">gum disease therapy<\/a>\nsuch as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Scaling\nand root planing<\/strong> \u2013 Also called a \u201cdeep cleaning,\u201d this is often the first treatment\nthat\u2019s recommended and is typically done in 2-4 visits. In order to thoroughly\nremove plaque and bacteria from under the gumline, you\u2019ll be numbed for comfort\nbeforehand. <\/li><li><strong>Soft-tissue\nlaser \u2013 <\/strong>This is a fantastic option because it precisely targets bacteria to\nheal infected gum tissue. It also has the significant advantage of much less\ndiscomfort and faster healing for patients. <\/li><li><strong>Surgery \u2013\n<\/strong>For severe gum disease, a dentist may refer you to a periodontist (gum\nspecialist) who can offer surgical options to help prevent tooth loss. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gum disease is far more serious than most people realize,\nbut with one of these gum therapy options, you can have a healthy smile <em>and<\/em> healthy body! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.patrickcrowleydds.com\/meet-the-doctor.html\">Dr. Patrick Crowley<\/a>\nis a general dentist in Oklahoma City and also a native of the area.
