GUM PROBLEMS SHAKE & SHED ALL YOUR TEETH !!!



GUM PROBLEMS SHAKE & SHED ALL YOUR TEETH !!!






bleeding gums
Its an Easily open pathway for hundreds and millions of bacteria and other micro organisms to
enter your blood stream .

If your heart is perfect every time when this polluted blood passes through heart, it may tolerate –
but what about if it is old / tired &  ill or fixed with a prosthetic heart valve ,
continuous Contaminated blood flow may weaken and damage it and worsen  the situation.


Advanced studies are showing low birth weight babies in pregnancy has some kind of relationship with gum problems ,

Oral health is gateway to general health

GUM DISEASE & BAD MOUTH -EASY Rx !!!

gum problems
Normally mild and moderate gum diseases do not give any severe form of pain .
some cases patients present with bad smell or may be bleeding gums when brushing.
But majority of the extractions done around the world are caused by gum diseases.(Especially among diabetics)
Here you can see a young boy 17 years from Sharjah ,UAE
has came to me to get treatment for his 9 years old sister for tooth ache.

During his sisters root canal treatment I could clarify his doubts about bad smell from his mouth and swollen bleeding gum conditions which is always bothering him (but since it was painless he was not sure dental treatment is required or not )


here you can see the change with improved oral hygiene and oral health .
if this patient was left untreated what would have been the consequences.
( he would have reached may be in my clinic or some where else in few years with loose / mobile teeth, with poor prognosis-leading to multiple teeth extactions- that is how we treat periodontal diseases with grade III mobility )


now he has to undergo normal oral prophylaxis once in a year and regular followup every 6 months .
