Progress of Gum Disease
 
Clean teeth, healthy gums, normal
bone level.
  Plaque makes the gums red, swollen and they bleed easily. Lots of Plaque and Calculus infect the gums and bone. This infection destroys the gums and bone.
 
As more gum and bone is destroyed the teeth become loose.   When lots of bone is destroyed there is nothing left to hold the teeth and they can fall out.
