According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 47.2 percent of U.S. adults have some form of periodontal disease, whether it's gingivitis or full-blown periodontitis. With such high rates, it’s safe to say periodontal disease is big problem - one that many patients feel helpless to treat. Worse yet, periodontal disease doesn’t just affect your teeth and gums. Recent studies have shown it is linked to serious illnesses like diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer’s, low birth rate, stroke and even some cancers. With so much at stake, it’s imperative to take care of your gums and take control of your periodontal health.
