What Causes Gum Disease?

Gum disease begins when plaque—a sticky film of bacteria—builds up on your teeth and gums. If not removed through regular brushing and flossing, this plaque hardens into tartar and causes irritation and inflammation in the gums.

Contributing factors include:

Poor oral hygiene

Smoking or tobacco use

Hormonal changes during pregnancy or menopause

Chronic illnesses such as diabetes

Certain medications that reduce saliva flow

Genetic predisposition

Over time, the gums pull away from the teeth, forming pockets that trap bacteria. These pockets deepen, and the disease progresses, attacking the bone that supports your teeth.

Stages of Gum Disease

Gingivitis: The earliest stage, characterized by red, swollen gums that bleed easily.

Periodontitis: The gums begin to pull away from the teeth, and bone loss can occur.

Advanced Periodontitis: The supporting bone is destroyed, teeth may loosen or fall out, and surgery may be required.

Why You Shouldn’t Ignore the Symptoms

Most people overlook early signs, thinking a little blood during brushing is normal. But gum disease is often a silent destroyer. Without treatment, it can:

Lead to tooth loss

Affect your ability to chew and speak clearly

Increase your risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes complications
