Gum Disease

There is another category of people out there who are losing attractive looking teeth. These people have gum disease that has progressed beyond the point of no return. One day they are smiling away, the next day the dentist is telling them all of their teeth have to go. For more information about gum disease, check out:

Wow I didn't even think of that because I could never even afford to get mine capped LOL. I think that's the WORST- spending all of that money and going through all of that work for it to fail anyways. I'm so sorry but thank you for sharing! Proof that it isn't *just* neglect and poor diet choices that lead to tooth decay.

I have peridontal disease and I have put off getting my teeth pulled since finding out 3 yrs ago...cause I am scared! I already lost a front top tooth and have a replacement in place now. But the other front tooth is slowly breaking off now! I just hope when I make that appointment, my teeth look as good as yours!! WHo knows? Maybe I'll even get my smile back!!!

Damn, you are absolutely correct. I was scared to go to the dentist because I thought it was cancer at first. I could have saved my 2 teeth if I went to dentist after 10 years without any check ups. I never felt my gums and bone melting away

Im glad to look at the video. It relates to me. I have the first stage of gum disease. Gingivitis. I will go to a periodontist next week to see what she can do about my gums. My numbers are up around 4, 10, 11's My pockets are deeper, but I have not lost any bone. I will have to see.

@Karoger1987 Thank you for sharing that, and God bless you for your strength and courage. This is just another proven fact about how ignorant our world can be when it comes to all of the facts behind oral health and dental issues. I will check out your page. Thank you again! :)

@mygalmo I have all of my teeth removed before my heart transplant. So i could protect my new heart. I have a video on my channel of my whole story.

when I was 10- I asked my grandma what was in our gene pool that would affect me as I aged- her response was 'You know how some people lose their hair? & I'm like- oh bummer & then she said- don't fret- your hair will always be wonderful- but- you will start to lose your teeth by 40" - Gum Disease is due to bacteria - receeding gumlines is due to genetics. - most people start losing their hair,teeth,mind,agility,eyesig­ht,hearing as they age & depending on their genetics
