Do you want to have a periodontal test?
Do you have friends and acquaintances who suffer from periodontitis and you are wondering if you suffer too? A simple test will give you the answer:
Do your gums bleed while brushing?
Have you noticed one or more of your teeth are mobile?
Have your gums receded in one or more places?
Do you feel like your teeth have changed position or moved over the years?
Does your mouth smell while you’ve brushed your teeth?
Do you smoke?
Are you suffering from diabetes mellitus?
Is any member of your family suffering from periodontitis (mother, father, siblings)?
If you answered no to all of the above, then you are not at risk. If you answered yes to any or some of the above questions however, you may have periodontitis and you should visit an expert. If you won’t, you risk losing teeth. The good news is that there is a cure.
