Gum disease is a bacterial infection and inflammation of the gums and bone that surround the teeth caused by plaque being left behind by our Pyrmont patients. Once the bacteria numbers become high enough, the jaw bone surrounding the teeth begins to reduce away, leading to wobbly teeth and eventually tooth loss if left untreated by dentists.
