Most people know to fear tooth decay, but dont know much at all about gum disease. This condition occurs when harmful bacteria infiltrate the gums, causing damage and sometimes dangerous infections. The gums can start to recede or pull away from the teeth, which can end in loose or even lost teeth! Knowing your individual risk factors can help you prevent gum disease whenever possible.

Age: The older you are, the more likely you are to experience gum disease. An estimated 70.1 percent of Americans older than age 65 have periodontitis, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Family History: If your parents have experienced gum disease, you are at an increased risk for having it too. Always let your dentist know if you have a family history of gum disease or early tooth loss.

Your Medical History: If you have a history of chronic conditions such as diabetes, heart disease or rheumatoid arthritis, you are at greater risk for gum disease. These conditions are associated with inflammation in the body, which can lead to gum disease.

Dr. Richard Bunn and his staff provide the best dental care you could ever hope to get. I just had two porcelain fillings today. They have a new high tech machine that makes the fillings right there in the office. The result is a perfect filling for your tooth. Great staff....great doctor..all you will ever need.
