Gum Disease

Rosa Colombo

Gum disease is a bacterial illness that affects the tissues that support and surround your teeth. It is one of the most common causes of tooth loss in adults. You may be unaware that you have gum disease since it is typically painless. Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is caused by plaque, a sticky film of bacteria that forms on our teeth all the time.
