The video below is a part from a TV show, The View. Whoopie Goldberg talks about gum disease.
American Dental Association and your dentist, Dr Cakir, recommend regular dental cleanings and checkups that include required x-rays, oral cancer screenings and a periodontal evaluation.
Periodontal evaluation is the examination that checks the health of your gums and surrounding tissues around your teeth. Probing (readings of your gum attachment level around each tooth) and evaluation of bleeding, swelling, mobility, sensitivity, gum recession, attachment loss are all parameters of the periodontal evaluation your dentist checks when you come in for your dental checkup exams.
Advanced gum infection that could lead to periodontitis and bone loss has been associated or possibly linked to systemic diseases like Diabetes Type 2, atherosclerosis, pancreas cancer and low birth weight in babies. So having a clean mouth means having a healthier body overall! Not to mention a better smelling breath!
