Tooth loss
At the end of the journey, and if you don’t take care of your dental health and do not listen to the signs your body is giving you, it is highly likely you will start losing your teeth. This happens because your gums are a protective barrier that keeps your teeth healthy. During periodontal disease, bacteria and plaque builds up in the periodontal pockets and start predisposing to infections. The infection may impact how your gum tissue is providing support to the bone, and when the problem grows big enough, the affected teeth fall off on its own.
