Unforeseen dangers of periodontal disease

THE UNFORESEEN DANGERS OF PERIODONTAL DISEASE
"I have periodontitis, my breath is very bad, and my teeth have all fallen out, so I'm very shy about talking to people." This is what Mr. Hoan, a Vuzela customer, shared.
- Nearly 90% of older adults suffer from this disease, which not only causes bad breath but can also destroy the bone supporting the teeth, leading to loose teeth and even tooth loss. More seriously, periodontitis can also increase the risk of stroke, heart attack, and many other health problems.
Here are some symptoms of periodontitis that you should be aware of:
- Pain when chewing
- Swollen, bleeding gums
- Persistent bad breath
- Loose teeth or tooth loss
If you notice any of these symptoms, please visit Vuzela Dental Clinic immediately for examination and timely treatment.
