| Gum
Disease |
|
A healthy tooth.
Plaque builds up gum and
bone may begin to recede.
Sometimes the gum recedes
with the bone and sometimes
it doesn't.
Either way the tooth may
become mobile.

| Sensitivity |
The
effects of gum disease
can lower the gumline.
This will in turn expose the dentine of the root. which contains the tubules
leading directly to the nerve.
Hot, cold & sometimes sweet foods can cause pain.
A special paste is available that can be applied to provide some relief from
this condition.
