What is Periodontal Disease
Periodontal disease, commonly called “gum disease”, “periodontitis” or “pyorrhea” is a chronic, destructive disease affecting the soft and hard tissue around the teeth – the gums, ligaments, and bone – that support our teeth.
It is believed that over half the population of our country has periodontal disease. A large percentage of these people are unaware that they have this disease, and of those people a large number will never seek treatment and may lose teeth needlessly.

What is Periodontology?
Periodontology is the study of the specialized system of hard and soft tissues that supports your teeth and maintains their position in the jaw. This apparatus, known as the periodontium, has some very important functions: it securely attaches the teeth to the jaws; it acts as a shock absorber during biting and chewing and therefore helps to prevent damage to the teeth from excessive forces; and it maintains the teeth in a stable position within the jaws so that that they work together efficiently and comfortably during chewing.
