Today I'm pouring tea Periodontal Disease. This tea smells bad, tastes bad, hurts your gums and teeth and can lead to other health problems as well.
THREE out of FOUR Americans struggle with gum disease and NEVER go to the Dentist to improve their dental health. Gum disease can range from mild cases of gingivitis, to the more severe form known as periodontists. If you don't go to the dentist and check on the health of your teeth and gums, it can prove detrimental to your over-all health! Gum disease has been linked to diabetes, heart disease and certain forms of cancer!
I hate the dentist like credit card bills, racists and child pornographers. Because of my fear and years of neglect, I have periodontal disease. It's not fun to go to the dentist and find out you have "pockets" in your gums where plaque and bacteria have built up because you didn't floss properly (or at all) and keep up with your visits. The treatment to remove build-up and treat the inflammation of my gums, is not only painful, but, expensive as well. Not to mention that I have some bone loss and some of my teeth have shifted and I have gaps that will cost me more money to repair.
Pay attention to your teeth and gums!
Bleeding gums - Not normal. Make an appointment right away. Your gums should not bleed from normal brushing or eating an apple.
Bad Breath or Halitosis - Your breath shouldn't be bad. If it is, it could be because of bacteria and plaque build up. You need to go to the dentist and check that out.
To lessen your chances of getting periodontal disease you need to:
1. Brush your teeth after every meal.
2. Floss DAILY.
3. Go to the Dentist regularly.
Now, there are also other factors that contribute to periodontal disease. Stress, heredity and poor diet are all contributing factors as well.
So, make an appointment to see your dentist today. Time for a GRILL CHECK Biotch!
Me at the dentist with the attitude face.
Ok, I might be the only person but I love going to the dentist. Unless it involved repairs. Cleanings are fun to me.... wierd, yes.
