Gums are the supports system for your teeth

Gum treatments in panipat

Plaque contains bacteria that cause cavities and gum disease. As plaque forms and is not removed by proper brushing and flossing, it can harden into tartar — sometimes called calculus — which is calcified (or hardened) plaque that attaches to the enamel on your teeth, as well as below the gum line. All gum disease is caused by plaque.

What is Plaque?

Plaque is a film of bacteria, which forms on the surface of the teeth and gums every day.  Many of the bacteria in plaque are completely harmless, but there are some that have been shown to be the main cause of gum disease.  To prevent and treat gum disease, you need to make sure you remove all the plaque from your teeth every day.  This is done by brushing and flossing.

Our mouths are full of bacteria. These bacteria, along with mucus and other particles, constantly form a sticky, colorless “plaque” on teeth. Brushing and flossing help get rid of plaque. Plaque that is not removed can harden and form “tartar” that brushing doesn’t clean. Which ultimately leads to more gum problems. Only a professional cleaning by a dentist or dental hygienist can remove tartar. Long-standing gingivitis can turn into periodontal disease.  There are a number of types of periodontal disease and they all affect the tissues supporting the teeth.  As the disease gets worse the bone anchoring the teeth in the jaw is lost, making the teeth loose.  If this is not treated, the teeth may eventually fall out. Afterwards, new teeth replacement options are to be thought of.
