When periodontal disease occurs, it’s crucial to diagnose and start treatment as soon as possible. The sooner the therapy begins, especially during the gingivitis stage, the higher the chances of success.
It’s also critical to start early because gum diseases are significant sources of infection for the entire body. Scientific studies have shown that untreated, advanced periodontal diseases are linked to autoimmune diseases, bacterial endocarditis, inflammatory bowel diseases, diabetes, strokes, eye inflammations, arthritis, and premature births.
