Ch Periodontitis is a set of inflammatory diseases affecting the periodontium — that is, the tissues that surround and support the teeth . Basically speaking it is a disease of gums because of deposition of plaque under the gum tissue . Happens if you dont get dental cleaning twice an year or folks who smoke and drink and can be heriditary also .

Treatment can be lengthy and pricey . Go to a periodontist a doctor who specializes in this . If you cant afford this get a deep dental cleaning that removes all the plaque from underneath the gums and do typical flossing and mouth wash .
