A disease that affects periodontal tissues is known as periodontal disease. It affects the alveolar bone, periodontal ligament, cementum, and gum line. Periodontitis and Gingivitis are two categories in which periodontal diseases are classified. The infection can spread to the bone and cause the destruction of tissues if left untreated or unchecked. The teeth will have to be extracted in such cases.
