         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Gingivitis and Periodontitis:</strong> Causes, Symptoms and Treatment<br><br>A gum that bleeds when brushing can mean <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gingivitis">gingivitis</a>. The oral cavity is home to millions of bacteria that, combined with food scraps, form a yellowish film on the teeth called plaque. As it is not very visible, most people do not remove it during brushing, which can lead to an inflammatory reaction: redness, swelling and gingival sensitivity (such as bleeding on brushing). For more info visit us <a href="https://medium.com/@koinakmhoya/fix-receding-gums-without-surgery-88d29c92b8cb"><strong>Regrow Receding Gums At Home</strong></a><br><br>This initial phase of gingival infection is called gingival recession. If left untreated, it can progress to a degradation of the gingival tissues: <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK279593/">periodontitis</a>. And finally, the loss of gingival tissue becomes so important that the teeth do not hold and fall.<br><strong>Can You Regrow Receding Gums​?<br></strong><br><br>What is going on?<br><br><strong>Healthy Gingiva<br></strong>A healthy gum is light pink, does not bleed when taking food or when brushing, and certainly not spontaneously. In a healthy situation, the crown of the tooth is visible. The root of the tooth is anchored in the maxillary bone, the gum covers this bone and firmly surrounds the base of the tooth. A small furrow with a maximum depth of 3 mm exists between the gingiva and the tooth.<br><br><strong>Gum Recession<br></strong>More than a million bacteria are present in the <a href="https://www.medschool.lsuhsc.edu/genetics_center/louisiana/article_oralcavity1.htm">oral cavity</a>: they are found in saliva, in the mucus and are also fixed on the teeth. If these bacteria are not removed daily by brushing or the use of interdental accessories, these microbes develop and form a thin white or yellowish sticky film, called plaque. This dental plaque adheres where brushing is difficult to access, such as at the junction of teeth and gums or between teeth. <br><strong>Regrow Receding Gums Naturally<br></strong><br>Dental plaque is also able to absorb minerals from saliva, thus forming tartar. This scale is deposited not only on but also below the gumline. Only a dentist or a periodontologist is able to perform scaling . <br><br>Bacterial deposits in the dental plaque can cause inflammation, called gingivitis, which has reddish, swollen, easily bleeding gingiva, such as brushing or eating. <br><br>In most cases, gum recession is painless and is limited to inflammation at the junction of the gum, and can be treated easily. In order to eliminate dental plaque and tartar, the cleaning of the teeth, as well as the descaling, must be carried out by a practitioner. This will be followed by an explanation of oral hygiene and how teeth should be brushed.<br><br><strong>Periodontitis<br></strong><br>If the gingival recession is not treated, the inflammation will spread to the maxillary bone. This is called periodontitis. Just like gingivitis, during periodontitis, the gum is red, swollen and loses its firmness. The gingiva retracts thus digging the gingival groove in which ulcerations, called the pockets, form. And since the support fibers are also infected, the bone in which the teeth are anchored is degraded. <br><strong>Regrow Receding Gums<br></strong><br>Periodontitis is recognizable by the reddish and swollen gums and the appearance of bleeding. If periodontitis is advanced, persistent bad breath can occur and as a result of the retraction of the gums, the teeth appear longer.<br><br>In smokers, these signs may not be so obvious because of the action of nicotine on small vessels.<br><br>The results<br>Periodontitis can act on two levels: local and systemic. During untreated periodontitis, the support fibers become an infectious focus that attacks the teeth and can evolve towards the loss of these teeth. <br><br>On the other hand, in addition to the local effect, the general physical condition can be influenced. Bacteria in the pockets under the gums will spread in the blood, precipitating the spread of germs throughout the body. <br><br>People with periodontitis may be prone to cardiovascular problems. Pregnant women are at risk of giving birth to a premature or low birth weight baby. In diabetics, untreated periodontitis makes glycemic control more difficult and the patient may experience complications.<br><br><strong>Risk factors<br></strong><br>A good balance between dental plaque and immune defence usually does not develop into gingival inflammation. However, if this balance is disrupted, the risk of gingivitis or periodontitis may occur. <br><br>This stability can be weakened by poor oral hygiene resulting in the increase and the alteration of dental plaque (an increase in the number of bacteria thus contaminating the gum). Equilibrium can also be weakened by an alteration of the natural resistance thus decreasing the process of formation and action of antibodies.<br><br>The effectiveness of the immune defence is genetic. Some people are resistant to infections and can develop a severe form of periodontitis at a very young age. Smoking, diabetes, stress, taking medication and hormonal changes are also the basis of a decrease in the body's natural defenses against bacteria. <br><br>• <strong>Smoking</strong>. The risk of developing gum disease is much higher in smokers, as their gums are less irrigated by small blood vessels and their immune response to bacteria is reduced. It is therefore certain that smoking increases the risk of developing periodontitis and decreases the chance of recovery. Stopping smoking leads to a better result.<br><strong>How To Regrow Gums Naturally?</strong></div><div><br><br></div><div><br><br>• <strong>Diabetes</strong> poorly controlled. Poorly balanced diabetic treatment increases the risk of contracting periodontitis. Conversely, untreated periodontitis can lead to insulin resistance and thus promote dysregulation of blood glucose. <br><br>• <strong>Stress</strong>. Stress can cause endocrine changes and the immune system. Stress can thus influence the general state of health and more particularly that of the gums. Stress is also at the origin of changes in behavior, or even indifference to oral hygiene, thus increasing the risk of periodontal diseases. <br><br>• <strong>Hormonal changes. </strong>Sensitivity to gingival infections has been demonstrated during puberty or pregnancy. <br><br>• Taking medication. Some medications can decrease systemic resistance or reduce saliva production. Others, prescribed for high blood pressure or as antiepileptic, can cause swelling of the gums. Brushing becomes less effective and the situation can evolve into gingival inflammation.<br><br><strong>The treatment<br></strong><br>The first visit to the dentist or periodontist for the treatment of periodontitis will be devoted to the establishment of the diagnosis. The practitioner will perform a number of examinations to determine the degree of inflammation. The general health status will be assessed and, based on the measurement of periodontal pockets and their comparison with the results of a thorough radiological examination, the stage of inflammation will be specified.&nbsp;<br><br></div>]]></description>
