The inflammation of the gums can spread to the jaw bone. The inflammation causes the gums to detach from the teeth. The space (pocket) between the tooth and the gums becomes deeper. The inflammation in the gum line can spread to the jaw bone. This causes the gums to loosen even further. The inflammation causes the fibers to break and the jawbone to break down. Consequence? Even deeper pockets. In this, the dental plaque partially calcifies into tartar. The gums may recede. This progressive inflammation with breakdown of fibers and jaw bone is called periodontitis. You often do not feel periodontitis and can do without a good one
control go unnoticed for a long time.
Periodontitis is often not noticed until the teeth loosen or if the space between the teeth becomes loose
teeth and molars become larger. Because the gums have receded far, roots are exposed.
Exposed roots have no protective glaze. This makes holes easily. Teeth and molars with exposed roots are also sensitive. For example, when you brush your teeth or when you eat or drink hot, cold, sweet or sour products. The inflammation can cause so much jawbone to disappear that your teeth and molars fall out.
