What Causes Gum Disease?

Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, often results from a buildup of plaque—a sticky film of bacteria—on the teeth and gums. However, several additional factors can contribute to its development:

Smoking and Tobacco Use: A major cause that weakens gum tissue and slows healing.
Diabetes: Poorly managed blood sugar increases the risk of gum problems.
Stress: Reduces the body’s ability to fight infections, including gum disease.
Genetic Factors: A family history of gum disease can increase susceptibility.
Crooked Teeth: Makes effective cleaning more challenging, allowing plaque to accumulate.
Certain Medications: Drugs that reduce saliva production can promote bacterial growth.
Hormonal Changes: Women’s hormonal fluctuations during pregnancy, menopause, or other life stages can make gums more sensitive.

Proper diagnosis of gum disease requires an examination and consultation with one of our skilled dentists at Tattva Dental Care. We’ll design a personalized treatment plan to restore and maintain your healthy smile.
